The Itinerary

Valleyfield (Salaberry-de-Valleyfield) is an island city in the middle of Lac Saint-François, surrounded by canals and river arms. It's one of Quebec's most underrated cities.

The Valleyfield Regatta (July) is one of North America's oldest and most prestigious powerboat races. Outside regatta season, the Pierre-de-Saurel promenade, the Beauharnois Canal and archipelago cruises are top attractions.
