This place, which the Ilnus referred to as the "meeting point", now attracts a large number of visitors who have succumbed to the area's charm. The shores of Lac Saint-Jean are easily accessible from the Le Rigolet recreation and tourism center, with parking along the Véloroute des Bleuets and a 1.5 km interpretation trail. The Camp musical offers a concert program and a viewpoint overlooking the lake. In the Lac-à-la-Croix sector, you can visit the Centre d'interprétation de l'agriculture et de la ruralité. Amateur geologists will be delighted at the Cristal du Lac mine. On the plain, the Croft Peninsula Arboretum offers an opportunity to discover the native forest. This area also features a lake scuba diving site and access to a heated public swimming pool. In summer, gather in Maurice Kirouac Park for lunchtime outdoor shows.
