Chute de Montmorency





Another must see when you're in Quebec, la Chute de Montmorency. Absolutely stunning on a day like we had, basking in the late evening sun just before sunset. I've seen them displayed in technicolour at nighttime as well. I'd love to see them during the winterfestival when they are covered in meters of ice. At 83 meters they are the highest waterfalls in Quebec and about 30 meters higher than the Niagara Falls. The views from the cliff are tremendous. You can either climb your way to the top using the stairs or take a cable car up. We took the stairs.

Up the cliff there is an restaurant, the "manoir Montmorency" an historical site and the place where they serve the greatest "mousse au chocolat" I ever taste!
