Oskelaneo Domaine covers a vast, wild forested territory in Upper Mauricie, located in the Clova area of La Tuque. The estate’s ecosystem is structured around the Oskelaneo River, which creates an extensive aquatic network over a 20-kilometer stretch. This aquatic environment includes, among other things, a natural spawning area located just a few steps from the outfitter’s facilities—providing excellent environmental conditions for the maintenance and reproduction of the area’s fish wildlife.
The aquatic fauna is mainly made up of yellow pickerel, walleye, and great northern pike—species that thrive in the waters of the river and the surrounding lakes.

the surrounding forest provides an ideal habitat for big game, particularly moose and black bear, which benefit from dense wooded areas, waterways, and developed salt licks. Birdlife and small mammals are also abundant, including ruffed grouse, spruce grouse, and hare.
In addition, the vegetation cover and forest floor of the territory encourage the growth of a varied flora. The understory and riverbanks host several plant species that can be gathered, including blueberries, wild strawberries, various wild mushrooms, Labrador tea, and Indigenous pepper.
