Beech Rapids

Highlight โ€ข River

The Rapides des Hรชtres bring a lively burst of white water to the Saint-Maurice River, stretching for around 800 metres. Their name, used since at least the late 1800s, comes from the beech trees once noted on a nearby mountain. From here, you have a view of the rapids out in the river, but the best view is from รŽle Anselme-Fay, which you can access via a nearby bridge.

Burbot Point

Highlight โ€ข River

Pointe ร  la Loche is a quiet little place to pause along the Saint-Maurice, with the river stretching out beside you and a wooden shelter for an easy break. The point's long been used as an access spot for anglers, but you donโ€™t need a fishing rod to appreciate the calm water and unhurried atmosphere.
