With the arrival of fall, summer gives way to a completely different landscape, signaling a period of transformation and giving us a chance to return to our roots. It’s a season that inspires us to seek out a change of scenery, a sense of wonder and new cultural discoveries. Here are a few ideas to make your fall as fun-filled as summer!

Discover a forest trail that celebrates Huron-Wendat culture

Located in Wendake, near Quebéc City, Onhwa’ Lumina is a unique multimedia experience created around the legends, rituals and traditions of the Huron-Wendat First Nation. This 1.2-km nighttime trail will transport you into an emotionally charged adventure through the magic of light, sound and video projections. Under a starry sky, let yourself be enchanted by ancestral rhythms and songs that will connect you to all living things.

Dive into Ancient Egypt and relive Montreal’s greatest moments

Until October 15, 2023, the Pointe-à-Callière museum presents Egypt. Three Millennia on the Nile, a journey into the daily, social and religious life of a civilization that continues to impress us. Another featured exhibition, until January 7, 2024, Favourites! Our Collections on Display offers a moving portrait of Montreal life through nostalgic objects that tell a story.

Learn about Quebec’s history of pulp and paper

Boréalis plunges you into the great pulp and paper adventure that took place in Quebec and explores logging, the omnipresence of water and the work of lumberjacks and log drivers. The artisanal paper-making workshop and underground rally will delight many, as will the exhibition Roots and Identity, a unique encounter between man and machine. This permanent exhibition will be undergoing a renewal, but continues to be shown until October 1, 2023.
