Campgrounds near Saint-Maxime-du-Mont-Louis
Saint-Maxime-du-Mont-Louis sits on the north shore of the Gaspé Peninsula along Route 132, with Mount Louis rising behind the village and the Gulf of St. Lawrence on the doorstep. The municipality includes the communities of Mont-Louis, Ruisseau-des-Olives, L'Anse-Pleureuse, Les Côtes-du-Portage and Gros-Morne, all in the La Haute-Gaspésie regional county municipality. RV travellers use this stretch of coast as a base for the Gaspésie tour and for trips inland into the Chic-Choc Mountains.
Camping options split into two clear categories. On the coast, Camping au Soleil Couchant Inc in nearby Grande-Vallée and Camping aux Pignons Verts offer RV sites with views of the gulf and easy Route 132 access. Inland, Gaspesie National Park is run by SEPAQ and includes Mont Albert - Gaspesie Provincial Park near the Discovery and Visitors Centre and Lac Cascapedia - Gaspesie Provincial Park deeper in the park. Together these cover both seaside and mountain camping within a short drive.
Things to do in Saint-Maxime-du-Mont-Louis
The main draw inland is hiking in Gaspesie National Park. The Mont-Albert trail starts beside the Discovery and Visitors Centre, near Mont Albert - Gaspesie Provincial Park, and the Mont-Jacques-Cartier trail starts from a separate campground further into the park. Lac Cascapedia - Gaspesie Provincial Park is the base for paddling, with watercraft rentals available on site. A park shuttle runs between sectors in summer, useful for point-to-point hikes.
The park is home to woodland caribou, the only herd south of the St. Lawrence, plus moose. On the coast, the village beach, sea kayaking, cycling on Route 132 and whale watching from shore round out a family trip.

The main RV season on the Gaspé coast runs from mid-May to mid-October. Camping au Soleil Couchant Inc, in nearby Grande-Vallée, operates roughly late May through late September, and the SEPAQ campgrounds inside Gaspesie National Park follow a window of about mid-May through mid-October. Outside that window, most coastal private campgrounds close.
Gaspesie National Park itself stays open year-round, with the Mont-Albert sector offering winter accommodation in cabins and rustic shelters and a network of backcountry skiing and snowshoeing trails. Four winter-only cabins at Petit-Saut are reached by a ski-in trail of about four kilometres.
Summer is short and busy. July and August fill up first, especially serviced RV sites and ready-to-camp tents, while late June and early September offer cooler nights, fewer bugs and easier reservations. Fall brings strong colour through the Chic-Chocs along with the wettest months on the coast.
How to book campgrounds near Saint-Maxime-du-Mont-Louis
Sites inside Gaspesie National Park are reserved through SEPAQ, the Quebec parks agency, at sepaq.com or by phone at 1-800-665-6527. SEPAQ opens bookings far in advance, often close to a year ahead, with staggered launch dates by product and destination. The most popular ready-to-camp tents, cabins and serviced RV sites at Mont Albert - Gaspesie Provincial Park and Lac Cascapedia - Gaspesie Provincial Park sell out quickly for July and August. Some rustic huts and cabins are bookable by telephone only.
Private campgrounds along the coast, including Camping au Soleil Couchant Inc and Camping aux Pignons Verts, take direct reservations by phone, email or their own websites. Booking eight to twelve weeks ahead is recommended for peak summer weekends.
What to expect in Saint-Maxime-du-Mont-Louis
Expect a long, scenic drive on Route 132 with limited services between villages and patchy cell coverage in the mountains. Coastal campgrounds tend to be small and family-run, with serviced RV sites, ready-to-camp units and direct views of the gulf. Inland in Gaspesie National Park, several campgrounds are semi-serviced only, and the Cascapédia and Mont-Jacques-Cartier sectors have running water that is not potable, so RV travellers should arrive with full fresh tanks.
Access to Lac Cascapedia - Gaspesie Provincial Park involves a long stretch of gravel road with steep grades in places, which may not suit large motorhomes or long trailers. A laundromat and dumping station are available at the Mont-Albert campground. Black flies and mosquitoes are heaviest in June.
