2011-01-27 1

A vast and welcoming region, a fascinating land, the Laurentians, north of Montréal, is a world renowned four-season tourist destination. Journeying over plains and valleys, trekking over hills and mountains, there’s a kaleidoscope of landscapes, bursting with beauty. The region takes its name from the chain of mountains which runs down its northern side, and is part of the great Canadian Shield, which covers most of Quebec north of the St. Lawrence River. Its lively and picturesque villages offer visitors a warm and lasting welcome.
