Cap De La Fée — Attraction in Saint-Donat

Nice 6.9km loop trail to a nice viewpoint that takes about 2h-2.5h to complete. There is plenty of free parking at the trail head on chemin Regimbald. You have to register for free online prior to completing the hike. There is a sign with a QR code at the trail head but unfortunately I had issues registering as I had poor cell reception and I didn't find the form easy to complete and submit successfully. The hike is fairly straightforward and not particularly difficult I would rate it moderate. There are lots of roots, rocks and the like along most of the trail but overall nothing too difficult.

One of the worst hikes I've ever done, and I've done a lot! First of all, the map is wrong. It says the right-side path is "easy" and the left-side is black diamond -- WRONG! I took the right-side path because it was longer, but marked as easy, so I wanted an easy way up and a more difficult way down, well it was the opposite. The hike up was difficult, boring AND MUDDY!!! The amount of mud, oh my God, insane. Then you get to the top (finally), and the view is absolute crap. Very small area and way too many trees blocking any sort of view. The "easy" hike back down was extremely boring as well. Parking lot is also on the smaller side.

Definitely don't...

Beautiful hike, great and varied during all seasons. Waterfall, streams, bridges. Not hard for all ages, some vertical. If you can climb up 3 flights of stairs you can probably do this hike over 90 minutes. There is a refuge and outhouse at the top. Suggest to turn right at the base of the trail and go up thag way, and come down via the 'road' (it's a loop). Makes for a slow and scenic walk up and a fast walk down the less scenic 'road' on the way back. Highly...
