Lac-Témiscouata National Park (French: Parc national du Lac-Témiscouata) is a national park located in Quebec in Canada, south of the Saint Lawrence River, near the border with New Brunswick. It contains Lake Témiscouata, which is "the second-largest lake south of the Saint Lawrence River"[dubiousdiscuss] within some unspecified area, perhaps within Quebec, with a length of around 40 km (25 mi). Lake Touladi can also be found within the park's boundaries.[1]

Lac-Témiscouata National Park contains a rich diversity of plant and animal life, including a forest, deer, and the Calypso plant.[1]

There have also been more than 60 archaeological sites within the territory, proving that humans have occupied the area for thousands of years.[1][2]
