Saguenay/Lac-Saint-Jean
There are great things to do in the Land of giants
This “Kingdom” where everything is larger than life is characterized by two massive bodies of water: the Saguenay Fjord and Lac Saint-Jean. The Fjord route is a monumental corridor dotted with picturesque villages and quiet bays and comprising the Parc national du Fjord in Baie-Éternité and the Musée du Fjord in La Baie. Whether by car or by bike, a drive around Lac Saint- Jean—a veritable inland sea—is a must, with a plethora of historic, amerindian, nature and outdoor attractions.

Mauricie
Discoveries a-plenty right next door
Located just 90 minutes away for 80% of Québec’s population, Mauricie is bisected by the Rivière Saint-Maurice, a tributary of the St. Lawrence. Consisting of nearly nine-tenths wilderness—good news for those who love the great outdoors—the region is marked by its religious and industrial history as much as by its cultural creativity and festive outlook.
