Cayamant

Cayamant is a small municipality of 800 inhabitants, located in the Outaouais region, namely, in the Gatineau Valley. Caymant takes its name from the Cayamant Lake and its meaning in the Algonquin language is Lake with a bay. However, another version says that it means Porcupine’s Lake. The village was founded in 1906.

Cayamant is the gateway to the Eagle’s forest. This village is particularly known for its hunting, fishing and outdoor activities. Climbers will be marvelled by Nid de l’Aigle and Cayamant peaks, where a network of pedestrian paths has been open. The ZEC Pontiac et the pourvoirie Mer Bleue (hunting and fishing facilities in Quebec) are located here.

A few nice restaurants, B&B, bars, a horseback riding ranch (au Ranch du Black) and a boat launch ramp are available here. The Camping 4 saisons is located on the territory of Cayamant
