Begin your journey with a scenic drive to the nearby Innu community of Maliotenam, a place deeply rooted in history, spirituality, and cultural resilience. Upon arrival, enjoy a brief guided orientation of the village before visiting the Chapel Notre Dame du Cap, a meaningful spiritual landmark. Learn about the enduring cultural heritage of the Innu people and the important role Maliotenam plays in preserving and sharing their traditions.
Continue onward to a powerful contemporary monument: a striking 21 foot tall aluminum statue of an Indigenous woman with her fist raised. This poignant artwork was unveiled in memory of the missing women from the Uashat mak Mani utenam community and stands as a symbol of strength, remembrance, and awareness.
Your experience concludes at the Tshissenitamun Mitshuap Cultural Centre, a welcoming space dedicated to the transmission of Innu knowledge, language, and traditions. Explore the exhibits and enjoy a light snack featuring local products, with selections varying by season, before returning comfortably to your ship.
