Escape to a timeless getaway in the Region of the Springs. Just 2 hours from Montreal or Quebec City, this small part of the Eastern Townships is a call to rejuvenation and awakening of the senses.
It all starts with the pleasure of tasting something new. In the Region of the Springs, culinary experiences are plentiful! Settle in at the counter of Microbrasserie Moulin 7 and soak up the friendly atmosphere inspired by the industrial past of the Jeffrey Mine. Did you know? Each beer's name is inspired by the town's history! For a more bucolic touch, head to the Wagon Volant, a creative pub where art, music, and the love of food come together. If your priority when traveling is to mingle with the locals, you'll be delighted to discover the café-restaurant Chez Guigui in the heart of Saint-Adrien village! And finally, if your steps in the Region of the Springs lead you into the forest, the 4-course table d'hôte menu at Auberge Restaurant La Mara will be the perfect setting to enjoy fresh, regional products.
What could be more perfect than a country inn for a moment of tranquility? The many inns in the Region of the Springs offer a wide range of choices. In the heart of Danville, you can sleep in a beautiful Victorian house that is now the Auberge Jeffery, and in Saint-Adrien, the walls of a former presbytery form the Auberge Incroyable, offering a stay surrounded by mountains. And if your need for rejuvenation takes you beyond towns and villages, you must experience a night in the heart of the forest at Auberge Restaurant La Mara or dive into the natural haven of peace at the ARC-EN-CIEL guesthouse. In Ham-Sud, the reimagined rural inn La Grande Dame will surely satisfy your need for escape.
A must-stop in the Region of the Springs, the Cœur-Villageois of Danville will surprise you with its history and the charm of its old-world architecture. More than just a visit to town, take the time to immerse yourself in the local rhythm of life. Enjoy a leisurely stroll through the Galerie G de Br or watch the migratory birds take flight from nearby Burbank Pond. After grabbing a coffee at the charming L’Artère D grocery store, stretch your legs by following one of the four routes offered by the Danville Historical Podcasts.
