Tucked away in Saint-Zénon, in the north of the beautiful Lanaudière region, Pourvoirie Pavillon Basilières is a family-run outfitter known for its warm welcome. Its exclusive-rights leased territory spreads over 20 km² and holds six wild lakes stocked year-round with brook and rainbow trout — it's hard to come back empty-handed here! The specialty is trout fishing with a cabin stay: you'll chase brook trout (9 to 14 inches, in every lake), rainbow trout, and occasionally brown trout and splake on lac Bernard. Twelve comfortable cabins, all reachable by car, host 2 to 13 people depending on the unit, equipped

with propane and solar power (fridge, stove, wood stove, shower and hot water, BBQ), with one rowboat per two anglers included. Day fishing is also offered on lac Bernard. In winter, two cabins (Belvédère and Falaise) stay open for snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, snowmobiling and ice fishing as an add-on. On site: walking trails, bird-observation points, and the VitaForêt workshop on non-timber forest products. Owners: Sébastien Borgeaud and Corinne Paris.
