Description:

Make your way along narrow country lanes that crisscross alpine scenery and admire mountain views, including the 2,870-foot (875-m) Mont-Tremblant. Stop and enjoy quaint French villages like Saint-Sauveur and Saint-Adolphe d'Howard along the way.

Enjoy a cruise over the lovely Lac des Sables in Sainte-Agathe-des-Monts that takes you along a shoreline dotted with famous homes dating back to 1890. Marvel at spectacular views of Seven Islands. With plenty of opportunities for photos along the way, explore stunning foliage, mountainside cottages, and lakeside villages as you cruise.

Learn about the area's history as well as the charming European-style village Saint-Sauveur. Enjoy a striking backdrop of mountain scenery as you stroll down its lively main street and stop in boutiques, cafés, restaurants, and other attractions. The best time to visit this area is in the fall, when the maple trees change color, mixing hues of yellow, red, orange, and green.
