Immersion in a white paradise

Summer in Canada: a green getaway

Summer in Canada: a green getaway

As the first days of summer warm Canada's forests and the nights grow shorter, sumptuous hues are revealed. Great expanses of white give way to brilliant hues. Landforms thaw, rivers flow and all nature offers new adventures.
Sail the St. Lawrence River from the Resort Club Med Charlevoix or admire the view of the entire region from the summit of Mont à Liguori.
And as the seasons extend, extend your stay in Canada to enjoy the Indian summer. Midway between autumn and winter, during this mild period, coniferous forests illuminate the landscape with their many colors.

To get up close to some of North America's most emblematic animals, head for Réserve des Laurentides.
Here, in the heart of the coniferous forests, unique wildlife proliferates. In winter by snowmobile or in summer on the trails, accompanied by a guide, explore the park and meet moose, beavers, black bears and other animals. This protected area, between mountain ranges, lakes and woods, is a must-see during your stay in Canada.

After a long expedition, you'll be able to spot belugas and whales. In a kayak, a pleasure boat or on a cruise, sail alongside these queens of the sea. Watch them leap and bounce through the waters of the St. Lawrence and Saguenay rivers, and discover a fascinating spectacle.

3 - What to visit in Canada

Taste the authenticity of Québec City

Taste the authenticity of Québec City

On the shores of the St. Lawrence, Quebec City is like a mirage of the old continent.
It was here in the regional capital that the first French settlers set foot on Canadian soil. Centuries later, the architecture, monuments and ramparts still bear witness to this history.
Stroll through the narrow streets and typical houses of the Petit-Champlain district. Take a tour of Château Frontenac and push open the doors of Notre-Dame-de-Québec Cathedral. The atmosphere of "la vieille capitale" promises a journey through time.

Skiing in the Massif de Charlevoix

Skiing in the Massif de Charlevoix

In winter, above the banks of the St. Lawrence River, the slopes of Charlevoix don their white mantle. It's the perfect time for winter sports enthusiasts to take to the slopes at Le Massif.
Put on your skis, polish your snowboard or strap on your toboggan. From your resort, a cable car takes you up to the peaks of Eastern Canada. Once you're up there, let yourself be carried away by the vertical drops and enjoy a breathtaking view of the frozen river.
During your stay in the midst of Canada's white wilderness, pick up the pace and fill up on sensations.

Isle-aux-Coudres

Isle-aux-Coudres

Between the Laurentians and the Appalachians, protected by the waves of the St. Lawrence, a small piece of land has retained its charm of yesteryear.
With its wildflower plains, old Canadian stone houses and windmills, Isle-aux-Coudres is one of the most beautiful islands in Eastern Canada.
Kayak from Baie-Saint-Paul or Saint-Joseph-de-la-Rive to these indented beaches. After paddling, hop on a bike for a complete tour of the island's 23 km of trails. And if you get the munchies in between pedaling, the island is bursting with sweet treats to sample in one of its bakeries.

Snowmobiling through Onatchiway

Snowmobiling through Onatchiway

All winter long around Onatchiway, the snow piles up and the lakes and rivers freeze over.
In this immaculate white world, only the green tops of the fir trees can be seen. Admire this polar-like spectacle from the seat of a snowmobile.
Cut through layers of powder, pick up speed and skate over frozen streams. When you're in Canada, winter is the season for thrilling activities.

Lounging on the Pohénégamook beach

Lounging on the Pohénégamook beach

Even in the most northerly of lands, there are postcard-perfect beaches.

Lying on the beach or with your feet in the lake, Pohénégamook offers you a journey into paradise.
