The Itinerary

Rigaud, at Quebec's western tip, is dominated by Mont Rigaud (235 m), the only mountain in the Basses-Laurentides. The Notre-Dame-de-Lourdes sanctuary and its 22-station calvary have drawn pilgrims since 1874.

Domaine Rigaud offers family alpine skiing in winter. The French-speaking village of Rigaud and the English-speaking village of Hudson across the Ottawa River illustrate the historical duality of this border region.
