When fall sets in, the Vaudreuil-Soulanges region, located less than an hour from downtown Montreal and bordering Ontario, becomes a playground for families in search of adventure. Between colourful nature, Halloween celebrations and countryside attractions, the region offers a wealth of activities to soak up the fall atmosphere.

La Belle de Coteau-du-Lac: for a festive fall!

Want to discover a unique place in Quebec? Until the beginning of September, the Tournesols en fleurs (Sunflowers in Bloom) event at La Belle de Coteau-du-Lac plunges you into a sea of sunflowers, where you and your little ones can experience magical moments and marvel at the fields of flowers that stretch out as far as the eye can see. Pick your own bouquets, explore the fairytale village and capture these precious moments with your family using the photobooth props. Be sure to go see the new heart-shaped arches, the perfect backdrop for a family portrait!

La Belle de Coteau-du-Lac also hosts Festiv’Halloween from late September to late October, when yellow sunflowers make way for orange pumpkins! Young families will enjoy picking pumpkins and autumn flowers before chasing each other through the corn maze. In the evening, visitors will see the attraction transformed thanks to sinister lighting effects and background music. And if you're not easily scared, venture into the maze when spooky characters haunt the grounds. Chills guaranteed!
