Leaving La Pocatière, gateway to the Lower St. Lawrence region, you will head towards Saint-Pacôme—one of the most beautiful villages in Quebec—then Kamouraska, renowned for its stunning landscapes. After Saint-André, you will drive mainly along the waterfront, notably in Notre-Dame-du-Portage, and once you reach Rivière-du-Loup, you will be able to appreciate the magnitude of the river, now referred to as a sea.
With its church, museum, and cheese factory, Trois-Pistoles is sure to charm you, as will the breathtaking natural beauty of Le Bic, which you'll encounter on your way to Rimouski. A beautiful route, gourmet stops, and the river opening up to the Atlantic... it's a winning combination for a successful vacation!
With the Self-guided option, enjoy your stay however you want, in complete independence. We give you the itinerary, book your accommodation, and the rest is up to you!
