One of five hydroelectric stations on the upper Ottawa River, Première-Chute is the only one open to visitors in Abitibi-Témiscamingue. Come discover its unique design, with two gravity dams and gates that swing up and down to let the water through or hold it back. Première-Chute and its sister plant, Rapides-des-Îles, bear witness to Hydro-Québec's skyrocketing growth in the 1960s. Well worth a visit!
