Enjoy the Abitibi-Témiscamingue

Abitibi-Témiscamingue offers a wide array of places to taste unique foods that are delicious and delightfully unusual! Whether you lean toward the authentic flavours of La vache à Maillotte cheeses, the exclusive microbrews of Microbrasserie Le Trèfle Noir, or the cattail-based spirits of Alpha Tango, every bite tells a local story, shaped by the land and the passion of its artisans. You'll also find a number of honey farms, bakeries, and chocolate shops that show off their creativity to offer you flavours that are unique to the region!

A favourite spot for outdoor enthusiasts, national parks are the perfect place to admire the symphony of colours that take turns in the spotlight around the region. Go on a hike in the Parc national d’Aiguebelle to discover evocatively named geological phenomena such as giant’s kettles and pillow lava, cross a vertiginous fault from the top of a suspended walkway hanging 22 metres in the air and climb the fire lookout tower for a panoramic view of the surrounding area. Parc national d’Opémican also invites you for a hike to enjoy the fall foliage. While you’re there, delve into the region’s log-driving history in the Pointe-Opémican sector, and check out the family activities that let you explore the park from a different angle!
