Points of interest
There are many points of interest where you can observe the Montmorency Falls from all angles, one of the most beautiful natural jewels of Quebec, renowned both here and abroad. Wonderful lookout points!
The cable car
The waterfall dominates the landscape, but on the other side, the view of the St. Lawrence River, Île d'Orléans, and Québec City will be just as beautiful. Open your eyes wide and enjoy this moment! The climb will only take a few minutes.

The suspension bridge
It’s a must-see on your circuit. You’ll feel the waterfall roaring intensely beneath your feet. A knockout experience for young and old alike!
La Baronne observation deck
Starting from the Manoir’s terrace, there’s a boardwalk along the cliff leading to the suspension bridge. On the way, you can stop at La Baronne observation deck to admire the scenery.
The orchard
The orchard is a superb place to have a picnic and to enjoy the great outdoors. Please note that this site shaped part of our history. On July 31, 1759, a major confrontation between the British and French took place right here. Remnants of Wolfe’s redoubt can still be found today.
You can also see Wolfe House, built around 1818. This farmhouse represents a rare surviving example of the domestic architecture of the French regime. The integration of English techniques, such as the use of large panes of glass in the windows, bears witness to its construction some 60 years after the War of the Conquest. Classified as a heritage building, it has undeniable historical value.
The panoramic staircase
Clinging to the flank of the cliff, this impressive staircase features no fewer than 487 steps. A number of athletes train here, but don't let that discourage you. There’ll be ample opportunity for some well-deserved breaks during your climb. At the bottom, there’s a concrete promontory, an ideal place to enjoy being splashed by spray from the waterfall and to feel all its cascading might.
The contemplative footbridge
Passing over the river, the old railway crossing has been replaced by a long, wide footbridge providing optimal pedestrian access and a series of platforms on various levels, allowing visitors to sit below and contemplate the waterfall.
