Explore the immensity of Québec's largest hydroelectric dam

The Robert-Bourassa generating station, with its monumental structures and “giant staircase” spillway, offers a fascinating glimpse into Québec's engineering feats in the heart of the North. Visit Radisson, the northernmost village accessible by road in Québec, and camp under a sky so clear it feels unreal.

Set off on an eco-cruise with Cree guides

From Waskaganish or Wemindji, board a Wiinipaakw Tours boat to explore the waters of James Bay. Through your guides' stories and the vast coastal landscapes, keep your eyes peeled — belugas, polar bears, and seals may appear on the horizon.

 

 

Taste a northern-inspired craft beer

In Chibougamau, Maître Renard microbrewery infuses each brew with the unique flavours of the boreal forest. Sample a beer with boreal essences or treat yourself to one of their cocktails or imported wines. The perfect place to relax after a day of adventure.
