1. Les Excursions L'Air Du Lac
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 161 reviews
Les Excursions L'Air Du Lac has been in business for the past 10 years. Our boat is a Pontoon with comfortable padded leather chairs, tables for clients to bring their beverages or snacks. The boat also has a functional bathroom. We offer two types of cruises. The first commentated cruise, which needs to be reserved in advance, called Le Chemin De Croix, leaves everyday at 10am for a duration of 2h30 including a tasting of cheese from L'Abbaye de Saint-Benoit and smoked trout mousse. This cruise makes its way to the monastery of L'Abbaye de Saint-Benoit-du-lac where you get to admire the Monastery from the lake. Since it is our tenth anniversary we offer a 10% discount on Le Chemin De Croix. The second cruise with duration of one hour named La Route Du Monstre is ideal for families. The cruise is commentated on the history of Magog, the lake and the monster. It leaves at multiple times during the day such as 1pm, 2:15pm, 3:30pm and 5pm so reservations are not mandatory. The final option which we offer is a private cruise with our captain that is ideal for anniversaries, marriages or reunions. You can customize the duration of the cruise and choose at what time it leaves which is perfect, if you want to see the sunset on the lake.

We had booked a chair lift to go up to the top of the mountain ahead of time which was wise because the beautiful weather attracted many people. The view from the top was magnificent since the Fall colors were spectacular. They are well organized with parking and safety-minded access to the chair-lifts.
3. Marais de la Riviere aux Cerises
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 386 reviews
Situé dans le cœur touristique des Cantons-de-l'Est, entre le parc du Mont-Orford et le lac Memphrémagog, il se laisse découvrir à quelques pas seulement du centre-ville de Magog. Là, sur un territoire de 1,5 km², boisés, marais, marécages et tourbière s'enlacent et engendrent une biodiversité impressionnante. Des centaines d'oiseaux, de mammifères et d'amphibiens trouvent au Marais de quoi se nourrir, s'abriter, chanter et se reproduire durant toute l'année. En plus de son réseau de sentiers accessible à l'année, le Marais de la Rivière aux Cerises vous offre une multitude d'activités tout au long de l'année! Sorties en kayak, expositions dans le centre d'interprétation du Marais, boutique, terrasses, ateliers et conférences, camp de jour scientifique pour les 7 à 13 ans, et bien plus! Les chiens sont acceptés sur les sentiers, mais doivent être tenus en laisse (1,5 mètres) pour la sécurité des usagers et pour préserver le milieu naturel !

We took a nice long walk around this point which is right next to downtown. It is well equipped with playground structures for children, public washrooms and a restaurant. You get a wonderful view of Mont Orford which is across the bay.

For the many times that I've visited the area, I never had a chance to visit Savon des Cantons until last week. We stopped in on a Sunday afternoon and were pleasantly surprised at the vast selection of soaps and other bath accessories. We purchased about 10 bars of the olive oil soaps and each one with a different fragrance. Devine! Reading a previous review, I didn't realize that they have olive oils and vinegars, so next time I'm am there, I will have to check that out! The owner is friendly and knowledgeable and I will indeed return! Prices are reasonable for these delicious soaps! Don't miss visiting!
