Waterloo

A cycling mecca in the Townships

Situated at the crossroads of three bike trails - Estriade, Campagnarde and Montagnarde - Waterloo offers a surprising number of things to see and do.

In 2018, the city received the Vélosympathique certification, instituted by the organization Vélo Québec, which notably highlights the quality of services and infrastructures intended for cycling enthusiasts. In summer, the region is a popular destination for cycling enthusiasts with possibilities suitable for all levels.

The prime drawing card in Waterloo is the Artria Park which draws its inspiration from the design of French gardens. Situated right in the heart of downtown, its many attractions include the large sculptures dotted around the site (they form an outdoor art gallery), musical concerts and the stunning views of Lake Waterloo.

Located close to the village of Waterloo, Manoir Maplewood combines the comfort and refinement of a hotel. Built in 1865, this magnificent manor was the former home of Senator A.B. Foster, an important businessman.

Village Tour

Start your visit by the Waterloo Tourism Office, where you'll be warmly welcome and given all the informations you need to make the most of the area.


Discover Waterloo’s heritage

Begin your visit by cycling or walking along the heritage trail. Along the way, you’ll discover more than 40 buildings whose architectural styles hark back to the English-speaking settlers who left their mark on Waterloo’s past. The village has a fascinating history and in 2017 it is celebrating its 150th anniversary!


De la culture pour tous

Sise dans une ancienne église construite en 1870, la Maison de la Culture de Waterloo dixit la plus grandiose des petites salles, propose une panoplie de spectacles et d’événements. Sa mission est de promouvoir les arts de la scène et les arts visuels en créant une ouverture à toutes formes de connaissances et d’expériences culturelles.


Multiple attractions in this Cœur villageois

This Cœur villageois offers multiple attractions – bike trails, green spaces, art and culture, as well as a public square where, during the summer, visitors can enjoy a picnic amid the sounds of live music.

During winter, don’t miss the local products and artisans such as Yanick Déry Galery, the Dames de pique boutique or the ceramic artist Coralie Huckel.


Haltes gourmandes

Pour le lunch ou pour siroter un bon café, c’est à l’Espace Boho Café qu’il faut vous rendre. Constamment en mouvance, Espace Boho se métamorphose au gré des saisons

Pour un dessert, ne passez pas à côté de la Boulangerie Artisanale Phil’s - Beignes D’autrefois afin de déguster les meilleurs beignes aux patates au monde (rien de moins!) ou encore faites un saut à la Pâtisserie Gâteaux Duvoquic pour de succulents cupcakes.

Pour de délicieuses bières, rendez-vous chez Robin – Bière Naturelle. Cette microbrasserie waterloise utilise des produits de la région vieillis en barrique pour donner encore plus de saveurs à leurs bières.

En soirée, étirez le temps chez Madame Fortin - Bière & Bouffe qui offre un menu renouvelé à chaque saison.
