In Memphrémagog, there are countless ways to have a good time while admiring the beauty of the region. On water or on land, by bike or on foot, there is much to see and do. After a busy day, you can even go to the drive-in! Here are some ideas for a trip to the area.
Tourisme Memphrémagog
Explore Memphrémagog Lake and its shores
Les Croisières Air du Lac invite you to take a cruise on beautiful Memphrémagog Lake. It’s a wonderful way to discover its diverse shorelines and the immensity of the surrounding mountains. Let yourself be gently rocked by the waves as you learn about the history and legends of the area on a one- or two-hour guided tour, or a private tour, aboard a comfortable 12-person pontoon. Relax while listening to the captain and taking in the gorgeous views. But keep an eye out, the mysterious lake monster might just peek the tip of its snout out of the water...
Explore the outdoors your way
The La Bouffée d’Air recreational tourism shop invites you to discover the Missisquoi Nord River by canoe, kayak or paddleboard. On land, rent electric-assist bikes to cycle the country roads in the township of Potton. This little-known corner of Memphrémagog is a feast for the eyes, with its picturesque scenery, set between the magnificent Owl’s Head mountain and the breathtaking views of Memphrémagog Lake. After a day of activities, stop by La Bouffé d’Air’s zero-waste dairy bar to recharge your batteries while enjoying a frozen treat or local product.
End the day with a movie
Ciné-Parc Orford is one of only seven drive-ins still in operation in Quebec, and the only one in the Eastern Townships. It plays three double features each evening (please note that the French versions of movies are screened there), to the delight of cinephiles and night owls. As soon as the sun sets, get comfy in your vehicle and enjoy an unforgettable evening. Want to be sure to get a good view? Arrive early and throw around a ball or have a game of Frisbee while you wait (permitted until screening begins). You can even bring your canine companion, as long as you keep them on a leash. Feeling peckish? Visit the snack bar for something to munch on during the viewing.
