From the first weekend of May, a summer vibe will be in the air, while many restaurants, shops and boutiques will open their doors for the summer season. Many workshops and activities will also be held during this month, so our part of the country is an ideal destination for your first road trip of the season!

Eh ? Yes, it is possible with Les Jolis Vélos Créatifs which can be borrowed for free in the heart of the village. Then, you know what? It's just too perfect to discover this village and go shopping with family or group. Plus, it's eco-friendly!

The dazzling, invigorating and energizing spring sun! The art of gently enjoying this moment of transition from the lull of winter to the bright future of summer is a real joy. So take the time to stop for a getaway in our region with friends, lovers or family to enjoy this season full of light and hope!

Ah ! Saint-Jean-Port-Joli ! Here is a village that lives up to its name! As I am lucky enough to live in the neighbouring MRC, only an hour away, it is not uncommon for me to head to Saint-Jean-Port-Joli for one or two days, simply to get a change of scenery. The experience works like a charm: every time I take exit 414 off the 20, I immediately switch to "vacation" mode, even though I'm only a few steps from home!
