Fall goes by fast, way too fast! And that’s why it’s important to seize every opportunity to indulge in all of those little fleeting fall pleasures! Here are 7 very different ideas – in 7 very different regions – to help you choose your favourite way to enjoy fall!


Going on a fall camping trip

No matter what your preferred way of camping is, at Huttopia Sutton in the Eastern Townships, every option is available to you: rustic camping, ready-to-camp canvas tents and 6-person cottages equipped with kitchens and bathrooms. And with the region’s mountains all around you, it’s the perfect place for some leaf-peeping!

Picking your own fruits and vegetables

What would fall be without the pleasure of biting into an apple you’ve picked yourself? At Saint-Eustache in the Laurentians, La Magie de la Pomme is the ideal spot for some u-pick family fun. You’ll find apples in the orchard, but also squash, pumpkins and corn on the cob ripe for picking. And you might like to know that this orchard is eco-friendly and that the site is adapted for people with reduced mobility.


Indulging in some luxury

Fairmont Le Manoir Richelieu, in Charlevoix, prides itself on its upscale resort experience. But this year, the establishment is raising the bar for its 125th anniversary. The Fall Fun Special offer comes with a $125 credit applicable on a selection of exciting activities, so you can treat yourself to some extra luxury. Golfing? A whale-watching cruise? A helicopter flight? A guided culinary tour? The choice is yours!


Treating yourself to a spa day

After a hot summer, the cooler temperatures of fall inspire us to take a moment to relax, let go and welcome in the new season. Bota Bota, spa-sur-l’eau invites you aboard its floating spa moored in Montreal’s Old Port to experience the benefits of the water circuit, release tension with a massage or pamper yourself with a beauty treatment.

Enjoying a long stay in the city

Secluded enough to offer you peace and quiet, yet close enough to the downtown core so you don’t miss out on any of the action, the Courtyard Quebec City hotel offers the best of both worlds. You’ll find yourself just minutes from Old Quebec and close to attractions on the outskirts of the city. This hotel also offers savings on stays of 5 consecutive nights or more. Now doesn’t that sound like a great reason to take the whole week off?

Go whale-watching

For a truly spectacular fall adventure, the Centre de Vacances Ferme 5 Étoiles in the Côte-Nord region offers a whale-watching package with many opportunities to see nature on display. Cruise the fjord to watch marine mammals and enjoy an outdoor activity such as watching black bears, sea kayaking, riding an ATV or hiking with dogs. Customize your getaway by choosing from a variety of accommodation options, ranging from rooms and cottages to yurts and apartments.


Loading up on culture

Back-to-school vibes in the fall also make this season a time to take interest in culture, and what better way to discover a region’s culture than by spending a couple of days there? When you stay at Hôtel Montfort Nicolet, you’ll have the chance to explore the cultural riches of Centre-du-Québec thanks to the Local History package, which includes a visit to one of three local museums, as well as an overnight stay and access to the on-site spa experience.
