The Itinerary

Sorel-Tracy, at the mouth of the Richelieu River, is the gateway to the Sorel Islands — an archipelago of 103 islands forming one of Quebec's largest freshwater marshes.

By boat or kayak, you navigate a labyrinth of channels between reeds and water lilies, home to extraordinary birdlife. The Lac-Saint-Pierre sugar shack and boat-shuttle cruises are the region's flagship activities.
