Enjoy Montérégie

Montérégie is an amazing place to get some fresh air on two wheels! One of the must-see destinations in the fall is the Montérégiade path, which takes you into the heart of Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu and gives you the chance to combine your bike ride with a bit of local history and delicious food discoveries. The bike path in the Parc national des Îles-de-Boucherville is a dream route for escaping into nature and allows you to cycle across three distinct islands. The Chambly Canal bike path is another gem: it immerses you in history while offering splendid views of the canal and the surrounding brightly coloured trees.

A true fall tradition, picking your own fruits and veggies is the perfect way to celebrate seasonal flavours. In fact, the Montérégie region could easily be considered an apple-picking paradise, with its many orchards inviting you to fill your bag with apples. Verger Labonté, on Île Perrot, and Vergers et Cidrerie Denis Charbonneau, in Mont-Saint-Grégoire, offer not only apple picking, but also gourmet boutiques where you can stock up on all kinds of apple products. And beyond just apples, agritourism farms such as La fille du Roy and the Quinn Farm invite you to pick all sorts of other delights, including sweet corn, pumpkins and squash.
