Montmorency Falls

A 272-foot tall waterfall near Quebec City, overshadowed by a suspension bridge and offering recreational activities year-round.

Tips from the community

Right off the bat, Québec City will dazzle you with its picturesque natural setting. Perched upon the hillside, the city overlooks the rushing St. Lawrence River below and sprawls along the waterfront for miles, meaning unforgettable views aren’t exactly hard to come by. Not far from the city center, Montmorency Falls is a local wonder that’s certainly worth witnessing up-close in all its might. At 276 feet, the cascading waterfall is taller than Niagara Falls and dominates the surrounding landscape. For a completely different feel, Île d’Orléans is a mere fifteen-minute drive from Old Québec and has a traditional French countryside feel to it with scattered vineyards throughout the island.

These are a few of my top picks from my stay there to inspire your journey.
