Camping Val-Jalbert
A campground at the Val-Jalbert historic village in Chambord, Quebec, with a pool, clean sites and riverside trails to waterfall lookouts. It feels more developed than wild.
What visitors say
Camping Val-Jalbert sits next to the historic ghost village of Val-Jalbert near Lac Saint-Jean, and campers get a discount on admission to the village. Reviewers describe the campground as clean and spacious, with a pool.
The trails are a big draw even for people not staying overnight. One hiker described a two-hour route along the river to a waterfall, with many lookouts along the way. Some sections are very steep, so good footwear matters. A cyclist warned that the riverside paths can be risky with clip-in mountain bike pedals.
Not everyone liked the feel. One visitor found it more like a small town than a campground, dominated by large RVs with every comfort. Tenters looking for a wilder experience may prefer somewhere more remote.
