Parc Omega Wildlife Preserve

Parc Omega Wildlife Preserve is located in Montebello, Quebec, and spans expansive forested and wetland areas set on over 2,700 acres. This distinctive protected area allows visitors to explore Canadian wildlife in a natural environment via a 12-kilometer drive-through trail, where animals such as elk, bison, white-tailed deer, wolves, and bighorn sheep roam freely. The preserve reflects the natural ecosystems of eastern Canada, with mixed hardwood and conifer forests, ponds, and meadows supporting a wide range of species. Founded in 1999, Parc Omega prioritizes education and conservation, providing guests with many opportunities to learn about native wildlife and ecological stewardship. Beyond driving, visitors can enjoy hiking trails, guided walking tours, feeding stations, and discovery centers that offer interactive exhibits about the animals and their habitats. The preserve also features children's play areas and picnic spots, making it a popular destination for families and nature enthusiasts alike. Seasonal changes transform the landscape, offering vibrant fall colors and a tranquil winter setting. Parc Omega serves both as an outdoor classroom and a protected habitat that aids in the preservation of several Canadian species. Its proximity to the Ottawa River and the charming village of Montebello adds to its appeal for visitors interested in combining wildlife encounters with cultural and outdoor recreation experiences.
