Map
Welcome to Northern Quebec!
Québec's largest tourist region consists of rolling tundra resplendent with roaming herds of caribou, immense rivers, ice flows, lush boreal forest, shimmering green aurora borealis and some of the highest mountains in eastern Canada. Activities abound for adventure seekers, including outdoor sports such as hunting, fishing, snowmobiling, hiking, dog sledding, skiing, canoeing and mountain biking. Other attractions in Northern Québec include the North Shore Regional Museum, the 3-km (2-mi) wide Pingualuit Crater and the George River, which is known as a prime spot for salmon, char and trout fishing. Visitors to the Arctic region of Nunavik will be in for a shock, depending on the time of year. During the middle of summer the sun never goes down, blanketing the area with omnipresent sunlight. The opposite occurs around the winter solstice, when afternoon activities are accomplished under darkened skies—and the brilliant northern lights.Tour Operators
