The day after the Biodome and the Biosphere, we headed out to Lafleche Adventure which is located in Quebec, only about 35 minutes from downtown Ottawa. The park has an aerial park, some hiking trails and caves, and we were excited to try out the aerial park, which consists of obstacles up in the trees as well as zip lines. After a 10 minute hike up the side of a mountain and a short tutorial of how to use the harnesses, pulleys and carabiners in order to make sure we were safely connected at all times, we set of on the first of 4 different courses. The first course was mostly obstacles and one short zip line.

The was the end of the first course. The picture below is the beginning of the second course with a bit longer zip line across a valley.
The sun came out after an hour for some nice 22 degree weather.

Off the side of one of the trails on our way to the next course we found the caves. Unfortunately, they were closed off with big metal gates since only about half of the course was open so early in the season, but I couldn't resist climbing a bit.

The aerial park took over 4 hours to complete and was a really fun way to move around outside in some nice weather. I would definitely do something like that again!
