The Outaouais region has two sides as markedly different as they are attractive, offering urban escapades and countryside escapes. The cities of Gatineau and nearby Ottawa, the nation's capital, are a mere stone's throw from hills, valleys, and parks. Gatineau Park, the Parc national de Plaisance, and the Papineau-Labelle and de la Vérendrye wildlife reserves are ideal spots to discover the region's fauna and flora, and to enjoy an array of outdoor activities. The region offers something for everyone: cross-country skiing, hiking, rafting, dog-sledding, snowmobiling, hunting and fishing, and more. Museums are also a popular highlight including, among others, the remarkable Canadian Museum of Civilization. Cycle tourists haven't been forgotten either, for the Outaouais region offers up some lovely itineraries, particularly along the Ottawa River. The original Route des herbes in the Outaouais' Petite-Nation region presents an interesting introduction to the harvesting and processing of herbs, medicinal plants, fruits, vegetables, and edible flowers.
