In Brome-Missisquoi, fall is a season to experience through the beauty of nature, rich culture and the many benefits of relaxation. Together, these three experiences reveal the very essence of the season. A visit or stay in the region is an opportunity to reconnect with yourself, with the past and with the environment, in a setting of enchanting colours. Here are three suggestions that will help you explore the region in all its splendour, whether your focus is nature, history or wellness.

Nature: the best view from the summit!

Fall foliage is at its most beautiful in the region! Take the opportunity to admire this colourful display at the Mont SUTTON Fall Festival, held every weekend until October 14, 2024! On site, the program of activities promises hours of fun in nature: hiking, mountain biking, a giant zipline, the zipline coaster, disc golf, chairlift rides, music shows, hiking-and-yoga and much more! Whether you’re visiting with family, a group of friends or your sweetheart or just on your own, there’ll be something for everyone!


History: a trip back in time through quaint villages

Discover the soul of Brome-Missisquoi’s charming villages along various heritage circuits. Each stop immerses you in the fascinating history of the region, where the architecture of yesteryear and local anecdotes reveal the rich past of the communities. These circuits will lead you to plenty of attractions: a century-old church visited by Queen Elizabeth II, the oldest Loyalist building in Quebec and establishments that marked the Prohibition era, just to name a few. What’s more your journey through the region’s living and built heritage will be enhanced with the beautiful colours of fall!


Wellness: the art of taking care of yourself at the spa

Nature, of course, invites us to enjoy moments of contemplation and tranquillity, but there’s nothing quite like a relaxing break at one of the spas in Brome-Missisquoi to recover from a busy day! Combining natural settings, thermal circuits and soothing treatments, these spas are true havens for your moments of escape. Whether you opt for the largest spa estate in Quebec, a spa inspired by German health resorts or a spa located in a magnificent country inn that will make you want to extend your visit, the peaceful setting of these establishments creates the ideal atmosphere for reconnecting with yourself and savouring fall in a whole new way.
