This chapter on the Charlevoix region is taken from the Ulysses guide to Québec. The unique beauty of the Charlevoix region has been captivating artists for years. From the town of Petite-Rivière-Saint-François to the mouth of the Saguenay River, the dramatic mountainous countryside contrasts sharply with the expansive open water of the St. Lawrence. A scattering of charming villages and towns such as Baie-Saint-Paul, Saint-Irénée, Les Éboulements and La Malbaie dots the coastline, dwarfed by mountains that recede into the salt water of the river. The Charlevoix region was declared a UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve in 1988 and is home to many fascinating animal and plant species, including a number of whale species that feed at the mouth of the Saguenay River during the summer. This Ulysses guide provides all the information on Charlevoix’s charming villages, attractions, restaurants, shops, inns, bed and breakfasts, hotels and outdoor activities such as hiking, cycling, skiing, whale watching and kayaking.
