Travel guide

Understand

thumb The region has many natural attractions: grandiose landscapes of valleys and mountains, a superb border of the river, maritime space, magnificent forests, picturesque architecture, history (in particular the astroblème of Charlevoix), artistic and cultural life.

Get around

The municipality is crossed by: Route 381 which goes up the right bank of the Rivière du Gouffre, gives access to the Grands Jardins park and continues north to Saguenay (Port-Alfred sector); Route 138 which runs along the north coast of the St. Lawrence River. The main mountain peaks are Mont Blanc du Grand-Lac (786 m), Montagne des Îlets (971 m) and Cap Martin (313 m), near route 138, to the south-east of the village.

Eat

Since March 2020, in the context of health measures resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic, several restaurants or dining rooms in Charlevoix have transformed the mode of meals at the tables into take-out or by delivery service. In general, restaurateurs have shown great resilience by updating their website, integrating interactive and automated applications for remote orders, as well as displaying the menu, opening hours, their mode of operation (e.g., by reservation, car service), health measures required (e.g., vaccination record, mask, distancing), other services (e.g ., caterer, shops, accommodation, access for the disabled, Wi-Fi, take-out, delivery), contact details and often the history of the restaurant or site. Considering the evolving context of the pandemic and government measures, it is recommended that customers obtain information from each establishment by consulting their respective website.
