Equipment needed in the shelters: In our shelters you will find: Wood stove, firewood, axe and newspaper. A large pot. Picnic table. Dry toilet near each shelter. Water point near all shelters except the Liguori shelter which does not have a water point; you must treat the water you find on the trails or boil it. Some shelters can serve as a stopover for day hikers. Don't be surprised if you see small miniature animals in our shelters. What you need to bring with you to sleep in a shelter or campsite: Sleeping mat. Sleeping bag. Backpack. Trail map. Walking stick. Hiking boots. Stove and fuel. Matches or lighter. Utensils, dishes, etc. Candle, toilet paper, change of clothes, mosquito repellent, flashlight or headlamp with spare battery, small repair kit (duct tape and zip ties), rope, thread, string, multi-tool, clothespin, first aid kit, water filter or pristine tablet, cell phone, enough food for your stay, garbage bag to carry all your trash, 9-volt battery for smoke detector (for all shelters except Lac St-Tite and Lac Gauthier), 2 AA batteries. Please note that it is strictly forbidden to have fires outside the shelter or campsite. Additional charges may be applied to your credit card for the use of firewood if the regulations are not followed. When camping, we recommend that you bring a rope to tie food and other scented items to the trees; do not keep anything with you in your tent. **The suggested equipment is only basic. Be aware that you will be in a natural, mountainous environment, so bring sufficiently warm clothing. Note: Dogs are not permitted on long hikes, in mountain huts, at campsites, or for cross-country skiing. Open fires are strictly prohibited anywhere on the Sentier des Caps de Charlevoix trail. Additional fees will be charged for violations. Finally, to hike the Sentier des Caps de Charlevoix trails, it is recommended to carry a backpack; the trails are generally not suitable for sleds.
