A 20-minute drive to the north, the covered bridge is a must for anyone who makes it up to Wakefield. You will also find great coffee and baked goods at the Hibou. Ask me about the secret sites and why I go up there regularly!

Parks & Nature
It's fantastic. A short walk from our house, begin your steady climb here up into the Gatineau Hills by car, bike or on foot -- and by cross-country skis or snowshoes in the winter! Hundreds of kilometres of trails, numerous lakes, cabins and sacred spaces, it's my big back yard and my second home! Ask me for tips on special sites/sights to visit!
