Long pebble beaches, canyoning trips, ocean fishing and flocks of northern garnets. L’Anse-au-Griffon is inviting and invigorating, and wild as the sea.
Welcome to the Griffon Adventure Hostel
We overlook the sea at the end of the Gaspé Peninsula beside Forillon national park. At the choicest location in Griffon Cove, we host you on our ten acres that feature all-original cabins, including a boat cabin. We’re all about adventures that smell like campfires and the sea. After enjoying outdoor activities all day and night, share your stories with fellow hostellers at our in-house bar.

Free and affordable activities in the hood

Natural water slides
The outdoors are our specialty. As we know the region like the back of our hand, we can recommend the best places for canyoning. Get ready to jump, swim and slide in emerald-green rivers and cascades.

Forillon national park from another point of view
Come aboard our boat Mathilde to discover the river’s secrets. On the coast of Parc National Forillon, we’ll see tons of seals and ocean birds. Before coming back to the hostel, we’ll do a little fishing for mackerel and come home with a catch, if we’re lucky.
