Good to know
Founded in 1998, Pourvoirie Ayapewa is a slice of wild paradise in the Mauricie, at Saint-Alexis-des-Monts, near the Mastigouche reserve and Lac Sacacomie. A trout-fishing specialist, it works two lakes lined with its cabins: Lac Piston, stocked with brook trout, and Lac Foin, stocked only with rainbow trout. Three fully renovated rustic cabins can sleep up to 32 people, each fitted with beds, a stove, fridge, solar-powered lighting, dishes, hot water, indoor toilets, showers, a BBQ and an outdoor fire pit. Beyond fishing, the property offers small-game hunting (Sept 19 to Oct 12), hiking along 35 km of trails leading
to former fire-watch tower sites, photo safari, birdwatching, mushroom foraging and berry picking. Affordable packages with discounts for children make it an ideal getaway for family or friends.
Founded in 1998, Pourvoirie Ayapewa is established in the Mauricie backcountry, in the municipality of Saint-Alexis-des-Monts. The territory is located in direct proximity to the Réserve faunique Mastigouche and Lac Sacacomie. Since its establishment, this outfitter has secured a prime spot among enthusiasts of outdoor activities, fishing, and small game hunting. The operation of the estate relies on two main lakes. Lac Piston, which hosts all the cabins along its shores, is stocked with brook trout. One kilometer away is Lac Foin, dedicated to rainbow trout fishing. Over time, the site has developed while preserving its natural setting and modernizing
its infrastructure. The rustic cabins have been renovated and equipped with solar-powered lighting systems. The territory also showcases regional heritage through a 35-kilometer network of trails integrated into the La nature d’Alexis routes, offering panoramas that recall the history of the old fire watchtowers of this forested zone.
The Pourvoirie Ayapewa is located in the municipality of Saint-Alexis-des-Monts, in the heart of the Mauricie region. The territory is situated in immediate proximity to the Mastigouche wildlife reserve and Lac Sacacomie. Set deep in the Mauricie backcountry, this wilderness retreat is organized around two main bodies of water, Lac Piston and Lac Foin, which are crossed by several streams. The terrain and forest cover at the outfitter offer views that are characteristic of the region, historically shaped by the era of the fire watchtowers. A network of 35 kilometres of trails runs through the property, allowing you to explore
the surrounding natural environments and access the different fishing and hiking areas. Access to the site is via Chemin Ayapewa, toward Lac Piston. Due to the local terrain and the presence of a steep hillside stretching for approximately 350 metres, access requires the use of a suitable vehicle, such as a pickup truck, an AWD SUV (4x4), or an ATV. Because of these terrain constraints, travelling with a trailer is not recommended, since no towing service is available on site.

The managed aquatic territory centers on two distinct lakes dedicated to sport fishing: - Lac Piston, located in the immediate vicinity of the lodging cabins, is stocked with brook trout (speckled trout). - Lac Foin, accessible one kilometer from the main sector, is stocked exclusively with rainbow trout. Terrestrial wildlife includes small game populations accessible during the fall hunting
season. The area also hosts wildlife characteristic of Mauricie forests, notably black bears. The property extends over 35 kilometers of developed trails through forest environments, offering panoramic viewpoints reminiscent of the era of regional fire watchtowers.

fully equipped cabins. For vacationing and the outdoors, the site features 35 kilometers of hiking trails directly connected to the La nature d'Alexis network.

Wow quel magnifique endroit, un grand lac, pas de moteur à essence et des gens super accueillant ! Pas une pêche miraculeuse mais 4 poissons en plein été je suis déjà très heureux. Pensez à venir en 4x4 car la fin du trajet est chaotique ( mais ça vaut le coup!) Merci M. Roger pour votre acceuil.
