Kenauk is an ideal location for a research institute because of its uniqueness as a pristine watershed and a wildlife corridor. With over 60 lakes and a myriad of flora and fauna species, the property of Kenauk has endless possibilities for research. Thanks to the Nature Conservancy of Canada and a dedicated team of biologists we have nearly complete inventories of all our species to facilitate research opportunities as well as long term monitoring and conservation.

Wildlife Corridor

A wildlife corridor is defined as a protected route that allows wildlife to move safely between areas of suitable habitat. Kenauk is thought to act as a corridor of wilderness connecting wildlife populations to the Papineau-Labelle Wildlife Reserve and the Mont-Tremblant National Park which would otherwise be separated by human activities or structures and development.
