Location Maps

NSFA in located in Eastern Quebec Canada, North of Baie-Comeau in a remote, pristine valley along the Outardes River basin, in the Great Province of Quebec. We are located in zone 19 south, WEST of the Manic 5 Dam - an area previously not opened to commercial hunting or fishing. The sheer isolation of the Outardes River and the surrounding area means that transportation to and from the lodge is by air or boat only.
