Chutes-Montmorency Travel Guide

Québec City

The last stop on this trip was a visit to Montmorrency Falls. While this was quite the site to see, if you don't go there at the crack of dawn during the summer months, you can expect to be one of thousands of people trying to shove their way through. So... leave early and wear comfortable shoes! The hike is fairly small (and not really a hike - more of a path) to get to the actual falls - but the stairs to climb down there are plenty. There is no entrance fee to get into the park, but there is a fee if you choose to do the zip-lining.

One of the views from Montmorency falls (obviously the falls aren't in it). I took the cable car up to the top. From there you are able to cross a bridge over the falls, which are higher than Niagra Falls, and come down some trails on the other side that eventually lead to a nice long staircase to get down. This is the easiest way to go around from what I could tell although there are any number of ways to get up close and personal with these falls, including zip lining! I would have done it if I hadn't been wearing a dress :(
The actual waterfall. It's higher than Niagra! Ft. A rainbow

Lovely stay. Property is great, only suggestion would be to have an adults only time slot for spa area - pool/ sauna/ cold plunge as there were many children and they were not always following protocols in those areas. So not as relaxing for couples looking to unwind at the spa.
