“The Massawippi Trails allow for an excellent hiking experience through mature hardwood and softwood forests, home to a multitude of wildlife. The Massawippi Foundation’s conservation efforts are impressive and urgently needed. Their initiatives help preserve disappearing wildlife habitats (including wetlands) and therefore protect vulnerable flora and fauna.”

Stéphane L.

“We support the Fondation Massawippi because we are blessed to have such beautiful trails so close to Lake Massawippi and our second home. There’s a great variety of trails, and access to the lake is splendid. We thank the Foundation for this wonderful gift. Long live the trails.”

Dominique and Pierre

“Just a quick note to say how much we appreciate the walking trails at Ste Catherine. It’s simply beautiful. Thank you!”

Pierre T.

“A special thank you for the tireless efforts of volunteers in keeping the Ste-Catherine-de-Hatley and North Hatley trails accessible, free and well-maintained, and for the Children’s Nature Education Program, which has a long-term positive impact on our community.”

The Massawippi Foundation and the Massawippi Conservation Trust acknowledge that lands that we have protected in perpetuity stand on the unceded ancestral territory of the Wabanaki Nation (Abenaki), the Ndakina.  We acknowledge that their history and relationship to this land and the water that flows through it, inspire us and guide our conservation work in our role as stewards of the land.
