The northeastern boundary of this forested area of 974 square kilometres (376 sq mi) of the ZEC starts at about twenty kilometers (direct line) southwest of Lac Saint-Jean or near the village of Sainte-Hedwidge.

Flowing south, the La Lièvre River constitutes the western boundary of the ZEC over 40 km.

The second entrance station is located south of the ZEC, near "Lac aux Goélands" (Lake of the Gulls).

At the height of operations in the sector of rivière La Lièvre, "Veillet et Frères Limitée" contracted between 3000 and 3500 workers assigned to the timber (through sub-contractors).
