A Region to Fall In Love With
Charlevoix
~ come early, stay late ~
A UNESCO World Biosphere of rolling green hills, river vistas, art galleries, cheese makers, and quiet inland villages.
Charlevoix is one of Québec's most beloved corners. If you have the time, come early or stay late. You will be glad you did.
Whale Watching at Tadoussac
One of the world's premier whale-watching destinations, just east of Charlevoix. Blue whales, belugas, and minkes gather where the Saguenay meets the St. Lawrence.
Parc National des Hautes-Gorges
Dramatic river gorges, ancient cliffs, and untouched boreal forest. Kayaking, hiking, and some of Québec's most breathtaking scenery.
Le Massif de Charlevoix
Canada's highest vertical drop east of the Rockies — and in summer, a cable car ride down to the St. Lawrence offers views worth the trip alone.
Baie-Saint-Paul Art Galleries
Charlevoix has always drawn painters. The village of Baie-Saint-Paul is thick with galleries, studios, and the Centre d'art. Allow an afternoon.
La Malbaie Old Town
The historic centre of our host town, with Victorian architecture, riverside walks, and a quiet, unhurried charm.
Charlevoix Cheese Route
Maison d'affinage Maurice Dufour produces the famous Migneron de Charlevoix. The cheese route winds through farms and producers throughout the region.
Casino de Charlevoix
Connected to Le Manoir via an underground passage — a convenient evening option if the dance floor is not enough.
Train de Charlevoix
A seasonal tourist train that follows the river from Baie-Saint-Paul to La Malbaie. One of the most scenic rail journeys in eastern Canada.
Fairmont Spa & Pools
Without leaving the property: the Geneviève spa, indoor and outdoor pools, and the cliffside esplanade. A full day of leisure without a car.
