Go on an extraordinary riverside or mountainside road trip in Charlevoix
This summer, explore the Charlevoix region on two or four wheels and make your way across magnificent and diverse landscapes. While the St. Lawrence Route, the Mountain Road and the popular Flavour Trail (which celebrates its 30th anniversary this year) are great places to start, you’ll also make lots of surprising discoveries around Baie-Saint-Paul, Baie-Sainte-Catherine and in the intriguing island municipality of Isle-aux-Coudres. These practical itineraries suggest stops for a one-, two- or three-day road trip and invite you to follow what you love in the region, whether that’s art, crafts, local foods, animals or history!
Enjoy a spectacular trip between crater and tides in Charlevoix
Charlevoix owes its unique terrain to the impact of a meteorite that hit the area more than 400 million years ago. Since then, the Crater and Tides sector has continued to forge its character, offering the extraordinary vistas we know today. You can see the remains of this collision – a 54 km crater and its central peak – at Mont des Éboulements. And if you feel the pull of the tides, head to Saint-Irénée to marvel at the long banks, or to Saint-Joseph-de-la-Rive, where you’ll find a charming maritime museum and a great view of Isle-aux-Coudres.
