Set out on a River Cruise

La Malbaie River is open to discovery, at any time of day. Early morning, the landscape is reflected in the river’s sombre waters. At day’s end, the sun pours molten gold over the mountains, above the valley. To discover on a cruise, aboard Le Menaud riverboat! And our lodging guests enjoy 20% off the 9:30am cruise!

A Flurry of Winter Fun!

In winter, ski on the frozen river or the tracked course on the road leading to L’Équerre. Breathe in that fresh crisp air, with the sound of your snowshoes as your only companion.
