The Itinerary
Kamouraska is a little Provence of Quebec: wide agricultural horizons, century-old barns, villages of houses with distinctive flared roofs, and — above all — sunsets over the St. Lawrence that have made the region famous among painters and photographers.
Route 132 chains perfect villages: Kamouraska and its regional museum, Saint-André-de-Kamouraska (historic tidal dykes, Pic Champlain beach), Saint-Germain and its 360° lookout, then Saint-Pacôme on the Ouelle River. The "monadnocks" — isolated rounded mountains rising from the plain — are a geological signature.
Niche-Locale in Kamouraska and Bar à Pintes in Saint-André are among the most prized gastronomic stops. In Saint-Pacôme, the immense wayside cross and covered bridge are worth the detour.
