The winter playground of Saint-David-de-Falardeau, one of the region's top vacation destinations, boasts over 1,000 chalets, including nearly 600 in the alpine village of Le Valinouët ski resort. From snow sports to snowshoeing, snowmobiling to oversized-tire bicycles, the region's original, high-quality accommodations, diverse dining options and Nordic baths have it all. To discover a different kind of place, open year-round, visit the Falardeau Zoo, which is also an animal sanctuary. Nearby, a hiking trail spans and climbs the Shipshaw River to the Chute aux Galets. Spectacular! After all that, it's off to Distillerie du Fjord for a taste of the famous Km12, an internationally renowned gin distilled at the foot of Monts-Valin.
