Up on the cliff

The view is spectacular from the top of the stairs. You can see the bridge across to the Île d'Orléans, a suburban farm island that is 8 kilometres wide and 32 km long, known for it's fertile microclimate that is wonderful for growing all kinds of produce especially fruit. The bridge to the island is the only way across and there's barely enough room for more than one car on it as you go across. There's a really wonderful spot on the tip of the island that has a great view of the harbour, the city and Château Frontenac. Sheer magic by night!



No better place than here to watch the sun set over the city (pic by Carmen).
