The Park was originally conceived as a place to discover North American wildlife in a magnificent natural setting in the Outaouais region, which now extends over 2200 acres.   <\/p>\n<p>Gradually, its initial vision has been expanded to develop the tourism offering, always with respect for nature. Visitors are invited to explore a 12-km drive through the park, which is home to around 20 species, including elk, bears, bison and wolves. The park combines nature, conservation and education through its trails, seasonal activities and animal presentations. Well known for its accommodations &#8211; including the famous wolf lodges &#8211; the park also features tipis, log cabins and chalets for sleeping in the heart of nature. The experience is enhanced by the OmegaBon restaurant, which serves dishes concocted from local and seasonal ingredients.     <\/p>\n<p>The Park&#8217;s entire project, down to the smallest detail, has been conceived and carried in a spirit of living creation, involving artists, craftsmen and entrepreneurs, themselves bearers of the region&#8217;s living traditions.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-2\"><p><u><b>Our mission <\/b><\/u><\/p>\n<p>Parc Omega&#8217;s mission is to educate through wonder. The park is a place for escape and <span style=\"background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);\">discovery, connecting visitors to nature and raising their awareness of biodiversity conservation<\/span>. <\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-3\"><p><u><b>Accreditations <\/b><\/u><\/p>\n<p>Omega Park is a member of Canada&#8217;s Accredited Zoos and Aquariums (CAZA), which means we adhere to strict and rigorous standards in terms of animal management, safety and well-being.
