Luoghi imperdibili
Una selezione per iniziare a sognare e organizzare il soggiorno — non un elenco esaustivo di tutto ciò che c’è da vedere.
Culture and heritage
Fort Chambly
Located on the edge of the Richelieu, the Fort Chambly The rooms evoke the French presence and colonial rivalries, but the site also stands out for its massive silhouette facing the water and the walks around the basin.
Place indismissible
Canal de Chambly
The Chambly Canal follows the Richelieu River with its locks, guard houses and its pleasant path for cycling or walking. The show is slow and precise when the boats cross the works, giving another way to look at this historic waterway.
Place indismissible
Mont Saint-Hilaire
Mont Saint-Hilaire is recognized by its isolated silhouette above the Monteregian plain and orchards. Its trails lead to viewpoints on the Richelieu, the fields and, in clear weather, Montreal, with a protected forest where spring and autumn are particularly expressive.
Culture and heritage
Lieu historique national du Fort-Lennox
Fort Lennox occupies Île aux Noix, in the middle of the Richelieu, which already gives the visit a light scent of expedition. Once on site, barracks, ramparts and powderboxes tell the defense of the border, in a flat and grassy decor surrounded by water.
