About Southern Quebec

From the St. Lawrence River’s southern shores to the American border, Southern Quebec has pastoral scenes around every corner.

Grouping together the Eastern Townships, Centre-du-Québec and Chaudière-Appalaches regions, Southern Quebec is an easily accessible destination – located less than an hour from the major urban centres of Quebec City and Montreal and just a few hours from Boston and other parts of New England.

From mid-September to the end of October, tourists are enchanted by the beauty of Indian summer vistas. Southern Quebec recommends a trip to the largest concentration of sugar maples in Quebec – between the St. Lawrence plains, the Appalachians and their foothills – to view the vibrant colours for which the region is famous.

The many country roads accessible by both car and bicycle are part of the region’s charm. Southern Quebec allows travelers to escape in complete tranquillity in one of the most beautiful rural settings in Quebec.

For enthusiasts of culture, fine eating and vast natural spaces, the regions of Southern Quebec are the perfect place to visit.
