Train de Charlevoix

Québec City → La Malbaie, along the north shore of the St. Lawrence

A new journey in Québec, along the St. Lawrence from Québec City to La Malbaie. The line runs right along the water: past the Montmorency falls, the farm strips of the Côte-de-Beaupré, the salt marsh at Cap-Tourmente and the cliffs and tunnels below the Laurentians.

The tide comes and goes on the river flats, and islands, ships and the ferry pass on the water.

Stories you might catch

56 small stories are woven through this railway, and every journey picks its own from the season, the weather and the hour. A few of them:

• Seals hauled out at low tide
• The ferry crosses to Isle-aux-Coudres
• Snow geese on the marsh
• Painters at their easels
• Starlings murmurate over the marsh
• A laker slides up the channel
• The maples blaze along the river
