You must
see

Île aux Basques off the coast of Trois-Pistoles, a show in the mythical Forge à Bérubé, Saint-Mathieu-de-Rioux with its lake and ski centre in action, and the Beaulieu lookout, between heaven and earth.

You must
taste

The Petits Caprices cakes, the kombuchas from Les Chants du Fleuve, the famous all dressed cheeseburger from the Cantine D'Amours and the indisputable cheese curds from the Fromagerie des Basques.

You will want to
move here

for this

How accessible everything is! The welcoming people, the medical services, the top-quality schools, the local shops, the affordable houses, the nearby wilderness!

The best kept

secret

The Motel Agricole des Basques, unique in the province of Quebec: an innovative solution that facilitates the arrival of new farmers in fruit, vegetable, forestry or animal production.

For its salty wind from the shore, for all the unrestricted and potential projects, for its ever-present nature, and above all, for all the lovable people as easy to come across as the spruce trees in our forests.
