Eastern Townships

The Eastern Townships is a tourist region and a former administrative region in southeastern Quebec, Canada, situated between the former seigneuries south of the Saint Lawrence River and the United States border.

Breathtaking towns and villages, quaint shops and upscale gourmet restaurants, farmer’s markets, rock concerts, spa stays and wine routes… There really is something for everyone in the Eastern Townships. 

Just 140 km from Montreal, North Hatley, a quaint pictoresque village at the north end of Lake Massawippi is a haven of tranquility, art and gastronomy and is protected as a world heritage site.

Enjoy the breath taking scenery from the pristine lakes by boat, kayak or canoe. Hike or bike on the many trails in the area, stroll through the park or in the forest and be inspired by the changing colours in the autumn months.

Besides its scenic setting, North Hatley holds its own as a member of the Association of Quebec’s most beautiful villages. Both the lake and the village boast numerous activities to make the most of your stay. Enjoy a round of golf, head to the beach and hit the water sports, go on a bicycle rides or a stroll through the village and the parks.

In winter months, the snow fall paints a scenic image of white rolling hills and covers the lake in a glittering layer of ice, turning North Hatley into a fairytale setting. At this time of year, skating, cross-country skiing, curling and other winter sports become popular and draw visitors from all over to enjoy this winter wonderland.

North Hatley boasts a vibrant artistic community, with painters, sculpters and potters congregating to the area, solely for its natural beauty. North Hatley has found itself a background setting for a few films, including the film ‘Secret Window’, starring Johnny Depp. Explore the boutiques and discover the heritage properties that line the village’s picturesque streets.
