Idyllic farm villages along the St. Lawrence
In villages with picturesque little churche and beautiful landscapes with the broad river as backdrop time seems to have stood still on this 30 km-long island east of Québec City. Until a bridge was constructed to the mainland in 1935, the people on the island lived sheltered lives--despite the city’s proximity. A loop road offers panoramic views of Québec City and the river, and farm stands along the roads offer maple syrup, honey, cider and strawberries.
