Quebec Cliffs, Canyons & Rock Formations
• A WorldWeb.com Travel Guide to Cliffs, Canyons & Rock Formations in Quebec, Canada.

This natural formation is in the shape of an Indian's head. The formation is also known as "The Indian Who Never Sees the Sea" since the head looks inland, away from the ocean. This natural wonder is located between Gaspe and Perce on the Gaspesie Penninsula on Quebec's East coast.
The sandstone cliffs of the Îles de la Madeleine have been carved into many caves and interesting formations. These natural sculptures are easily visited by boat or kayak.
The Rocher Perce (Pierced Rock) is pictured on a clear summer day. The rock, estimated to weigh 5 million tonnes, stands 88 m (290 ft) tall and is 438 m (1,437 ft) long.
The famous Rocher Perce (Pierced Rock), seen from the non-pierced side, just offshore from the town of Perce. The Ile Bonaventure lies beyond the rock, and the Pic de l'Aurore cliffs are just out of view on the left of the photo.
The Rocher Perce (Pierced Rock) is shown in winter. The rock, believed to be 375 million years old, contains numerous fossils. At one time there were two holes in the rock, but one of them collapsed in 1845, leaving the gap seen to the right of the hole in this view.
