The best camping in Charlevoix

·

Charlevoix is a top destination for outdoor enthusiasts and a gateway to all of the adventures that await in Northern Quebec. Hiking and mountain biking are extremely popular, and ample trails are available at the Parc National des Grands-Jardins and Charlevoix Biosphere Reserve. In summer, there are excellent options for whale watching, fishing, and kayaking. Book a Charlevoix campsite to take in all the area has to offer during this time, or opt for a winter cabin rental to hit the Le Massif ski resort for skiing or snowboarding. The area is also notable for its farm-to-table cuisine—fresh seafood, game, and root vegetables (along with plenty of maple syrup!) dominate regional menus.
