Our packages
Fly fishing
From its source in Lake Minto, the Rivière aux Feuilles flows from Hudson Bay to Ungava Bay. This 150-mile journey winds through waters where world-class fish swim alongside pristine landscapes and ancient campsites once used by the Inuit. The recent discovery of the exceptional fishing on the Rivière aux Feuilles offers anglers the opportunity to combine today's technology and equipment with the unspoiled waters of the past. Come fish one of Northern Quebec's most beautiful rivers from early August to late September, where Atlantic salmon, lake trout, and brook trout are always ready to provide you with unforgettable fishing stories.

Local
Supporting Leaf River Lodge means supporting a local, family-run business that has been introducing nature lovers to this magnificent territory for over 30 years! The story of Leaf River Lodge is one of passion and devotion that shines through in the unique, personalized, and welcoming experience offered to you.
Unique
The Leaf River Lodge is the only protected area in the world that allows for the observation of the migration of Quebec's largest caribou herd. The Leaf River herd travels approximately 6,000 km annually, traversing turbulent rivers, ice, wolf packs, and fierce winds.
Isolated
The Leaf River Lodge is one of the few places in the world where the tundra stretches as far as the eye can see. Few people have had the chance to venture so far, so high, into this wild territory. Traveling here is to discover a timeless world where untamed nature reveals itself in all its purity in a place that few have had the privilege of exploring.
Every detail is designed to create a unique connection between you and the wilderness.
Did you know?
The Rivière aux Feuilles outfitter, located in Nunavik, has replaced its diesel generators with a green energy system comprised of 32 solar panels and 15 batteries, reducing its fuel consumption by 18,000 liters per season. This project, carried out in partnership with Volts Énergies, was 50% funded by grants and will pay for itself in four years. The electricity fully powers the tourist facilities. The initiative, praised for its environmental and economic impact, is a contender for a Eureka! Award. It also paves the way for expansion into winter ecotourism, despite the increased energy challenges.
"After gazing at the cascading water, we feasted on wild berries that grew all around the shore, then began our descent to the boat. At that moment, Tardif signaled us to be quiet and pointed to a spot in the distance. There, in the middle of nowhere, a curious black bear raised its head."

“Louis, thank you again for this incredible hiking and wildlife viewing experience at Leaf River Lodge. Being in such a remote location with world-class guides and such comfort was simply amazing. And the journey to the lodge, via Kuujjuaq, and then seeing the vast tundra and wildlife for the first time from the Twin Otter flight was a real bonus. A truly life-changing experience!”

“My stay at the Leaf River Lodge is marked by long, quiet moments in the tundra, interspersed with breathtaking experiences that demand the concentration of a gazelle. One moment I’m walking calmly across a pond, and the next I’m sneaking up on a trio of willow ptarmigans, photographing their half-white, half-brown bodies as they molt. At another point, I’m lost in thought, reflecting on the day, when someone spots a trio of lively otters circling on the riverbank, causing utter chaos among the photographers.”
