Discover Isle-aux-Coudres
Here is a beautiful destination for the whole family as there is so much to do. The "Marsouins" (Porpoises), nickname of its inhabitants, are warm and friendly people. L'Isle-aux-Coudres is located in the Charlevoix region, about 105 km from Quebec City. A ferry service is available from the city of St-Joseph-de-la-Rive. Once you have arrived in your rented cottage, you can go for a bike ride (40 km cycle lane), a hike (try the Chouenneux trail), or go for surf paddles, snowkite, kitesurf, watercraft excursions, do yoga outside, take a stroll in the orchards or on the beach, pick wild berries, watch the stars, or relax in the health centres. In short, impossible to be bored on this small isle of 30 square km.
Isle-aux-Coudres has a lot to offer, be it honey, orchards, ciders, craftsmen or farmers. A visit to the Moulins de l'Isle-aux-Coudres with its ecomuseum will explain the history and the technique of making flour. Many events during the year are organized for the simple pleasure, be it a treasure hunt, dinner show, jazz programming at the Hotel Cap aux Pierres, the folklore festival, the half marathon, to name a few.
