Bagotville

 

Bagotville is referred to as CFB Bagotville because it is a Canadian Forces Base. It is located in the city of Saguenay, Quebec. It is one of two bases in the country that uses CF-18 Hornet fighters.

 

However, the sight is also used by civilian aircraft. One attraction that you will definitely want to visit is the Bagotville Air Defence Museum. It is the only aviation museum in Quebec. Attached to it is a park with different military aircraft on display.

There is also an air show each summer and a flying club in Bagotville. Along with its military alignment Bagotville is very scenic and offers visitors accommodations and campgrounds if they wish. Then there is the Bagotville barrage which is a barrier that limits the mixture of salt seawater with fresh water from the Tuckean Swamp. There are hectares of water lilies. You will find a variety of birds and they can all be seen from the roadway.
