Discover Pourvoirie Homamo

The outfitter

Set on Lac Itomamo in the Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean backcountry, Pourvoirie Homamo covers a wild 129 km² territory dotted with 45 lakes (about fifteen of them worked for fishing) and 3 rivers. The fishing is for native speckled (brook) trout — plentiful and reaching up to 10 pounds — on pure, fish-rich lakes reached by trails. For hunting, the territory offers moose (8 exclusive sectors of about 10 km² each), black bear (access to the whole territory) and small game (150 km of trails). Lodging is in 9 round-log cabins, rustic but clean and functional, spread across 3 sites and sleeping up

to 10 people. Beyond hunting and fishing, you can swim, stand-up paddleboard, canoe, ride an ATV (your own or rented), hike while watching wildlife and picking wild blueberries, run the river with wilderness camping, and in winter go off-trail snowmobiling and ice fishing. The name comes from the Innu-aimun word 'Étamamiou', meaning 'height of land' and 'watershed divide'.

Its story

The history of the Pourvoirie Homamo territory dates back to the early 20th century, when explorer Joseph Bureau described Lake Itomamo, highlighting its exceptional depth, the remarkable size of the trout caught there, and the abundance of game. Historically, the main lake was named Homanno or Étamamiou, terms from the Innu-aimun language meaning "height of land" and "watershed," referring to the many branches of the water body. For decades, this wild sector of Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean remained a remote location, accessible only by floatplane or snowshoes. A major change occurred in 2006, when the outfitter's territory was finally made accessible by car

via road. Over the years, the outfitter has developed its offerings while preserving the untouched character of nature: black bear hunting was introduced in 2012, followed by small game hunting in 2023. A member of the Fédération des pourvoiries, the establishment continues its tradition of hospitality in the heart of an exclusive 129 km2 territory.

Territory and geography

Wild 129 km² territory dotted with 45 lakes (about fifteen of them worked for fishing) and 3 rivers.

Wildlife and habitat

Pourvoirie Homamo covers a 129 km² wild and mountainous territory located in the Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean region, north of Saguenay and south of the Pipmuacan Reservoir (hunting zone 28). This preserved natural environment is home to over 45 lakes and three major rivers, including the Rivière aux Sables and the Maria River. The main body of water, Lake Itomamo, spans 14 km² with a perimeter of nearly 14 km and depths exceeding 220 feet. It is fed by numerous rivers and natural spawning grounds. The territory is renowned for its populations of native brook trout of remarkable genetic purity, divided into four

distinct strains originating from the sector's major watercourses. Without any stocking or introduction of fry, these brook trout average 10 to 12 inches, regularly reaching weights of 2 to 4 pounds, and exceptionally up to nearly 10 pounds. On land, the boreal forest hosts a high density of moose and a large population of black bears. Forested areas include 8 to 15-year-old cutovers, resting sites, and breeding grounds ideal for game. Small game is also abundant, particularly ruffed grouse, spruce grouse, and snowshoe hare. Observed wildlife includes caribou, wolves, foxes, martens, mink, otters, beavers, muskrats, and porcupines. Wetlands and aquatic environments attract a variety of birds including great blue herons, bald eagles, snowy owls, falcons, hawks, great horned owls, and various duck species. Additionally, the local flora is rich with wild blueberry patches and edible mushrooms.

On site

Pourvoirie Homamo offers a wide range of outdoor, hunting, and fishing activities in the heart of the Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean wilderness. During the summer season, native brook trout fishing takes place on 15 managed lakes as well as the Rivière aux Sables and Maria River. Anglers have access to motorboats, canoes, paddleboards, and ATVs (included or available for rent) to reach headwater lakes. An on-site shop provides gear and flies, and offers free fly-fishing clinics. A paid gutting service and a fish cleaning station are also available. In winter, ice fishing is paired with off-trail snowmobile expeditions, snowshoeing, and backcountry cross-country skiing.

+ + See more

Sport hunting is organized by sector: moose are hunted on 8 exclusive 10 km² territories equipped with blinds, watchtowers, and salt licks, supported by a blood-tracking dog and a walk-in cooler. Black bear hunting covers the entire 129 km² territory with sites baited daily. Small game hunting (grouse and hare) takes place along forest trails with ATV rentals available. For vacationers and families, the outfitter offers 150 km of marked trails with bridges for hiking, wildlife viewing, and wild blueberry and mushroom picking in August. A bird observatory allows for the spotting of birds of prey. Pontoon rides, river canoeing with wilderness camping, swimming, and an inflatable play structure for children complete the activity lineup.

Une expérience authentique en pleine nature... Quelle magnifique expérience à la Pourvoirie HOMAMO ! Stéphane, le propriétaire, passionné par la nature et l’accueil, nous a reçu avec une grande générosité et a tout fait pour rendre notre séjour inoubliable. Son histoire est inspirante : ancien client tombé amoureux du territoire, il partage aujourd’hui son enthousiasme avec ses invités et ça se ressent à chaque instant. L’équipe est chaleureuse et l’organisation sur place nous a permis de découvrir les Monts Valin dans les meilleures conditions. Le chalet était impeccable, propre, confortable et très bien équipé – nous y serions restés volontiers une semaine de plus ! Notre séjour a été ponctué de superbes rencontres animalières et nous avons eu la chance de croiser une magnifique femelle orignal, un moment magique. Ce voyage père-fille restera gravé dans nos mémoires pour toujours : des souvenirs précieux et les beaux petits gibiers ramenés nous permettrons de prolonger le plaisir à la maison ! Nous recommandons vivement cette pourvoirie qui nous a permis de découvrir toute la richesse et la beauté du territoire exceptionnel de la Pourvoirie HOMAMO, avec ses grands espaces sauvages, ses nombreux lacs et la nature préservée des monts Valin. Merci à Stéphane et à toute l’équipe pour ce séjour exceptionnel !

Magnifique endroit à découvrir pour un voyage de motoneige. Un immense territoire avec un accès rapide à des sentiers forestiers. Aussi possible de rejoindre les pistes fédérées et des champs de neiges populaires des Monts Valin. Nous avons fait plus de 700 km de sentiers différents à partir de notre confortable chalet. Accueil génial et attentionné. Nous étions passé l’été en moto avec un objectif de revenir en hiver. Nous avons vraiment apprécié notre séjour.

Un endroit magnifique! Beau grand territoire hors-piste pour notre séjour de motoneige et que dire de l’accueil du propriétaire et de son service de guide! Notre chalet pour 6-8 personnes était parfait et bien équipé! Merci encore! La pêche sur glace était disponible mais nous avons manqué de temps. Ce sera pour une prochaine fois car nous allons revenir c’est certain 🙂
