ÎLE-AUX-LIÈVRES, QUEBEC

For an off the beaten path experience, visit l'Île-aux-Lièvres! This island located off the coast of Rivière-du-Loup offers an amazing environment for those who wish to reconnect with nature. You can stay at their small cottages, at their lodge or book one of their several camping spots.
