The Laurentians are your ideal escape route when you need to take a breather. Whether alone, as a couple or with the whole family, Quebecers have been flocking to this region – “heading up north,” as they say – for years. And everyone finds something entertaining and relaxing to do here, enjoying the great outdoors, one-of-a-kind attractions, recreational activities, famous spas and wellness centres, and great restaurants. With gentle hills and valleys eventually giving way to loftier mountainscapes, it’s the region par excellence in which to live the resort experience.
An international destination
