Discover the culture of the Eastern James Bay Cree! The Cree have been hunting, fishing and trapping on this territory for thousands of years. Today, Cree families still occupy their 350 000 square km of Eeyou Istchee and continue to practice their traditional activities out on the land.

With its language, traditions and customs still vibrant and alive, you will live an authentic cultural immersion in Eeyou Istchee Baie-James. You are invited to a stay in a traditional family camp or a visit a modern museum, both will help you to discover all the treasures and beauty of the Cree culture.

Although Pow Wow are not traditionally Cree, the communities have begun to incorporate these celebrations into their annual calendar of community cultural activities. We invite you to experience a Cree Pow Wow like never before during a behind the scenes tour with a local guide.
