Regions
Fall turns Petite Nation into a spectacular outdoor playground. Hike through the trails of Parc des Montagnes Noires de Ripon, Parc régional de la Forêt Bowman or the Réserve écologique de la Forêt-la-Blanche. Craving vertical thrills? The rock faces of Bowman and Notre-Dame-de-Bonsecours offer colourful challenges. Prefer two wheels? Montebello and Ripon await with thrilling trails. For something gentler, paddle with Échappée Bleue on Lake Viceroy or the Petite Nation River. Every outing becomes a sporty journey, where movement meets the beauty of a changing landscape.
Local accommodations reveal their full charm in the fall. Sleep near arctic wolves at Parc Omega, find inner peace at the Centre de vie, or camp by the waterfalls at Domaine Lockbow. Base de plein air Air-Eau-Bois welcomes you deep in the forest for a truly unique experience. Craving comfort? Let yourself be charmed by the rustic luxury of Fairmont Le Château Montebello or the soothing atmosphere of Auberge Couleurs de France. Prefer a chalet? Plenty of cozy options await. Whether you’re travelling as a couple, with family, or solo, each place offers a memorable autumn escape filled with nature, comfort, and authenticity.
Culture, music, and tradition — fall in Petite Nation means celebration! In Ripon, experience live creation at the in situ Art Symposium or feel the energy of the Ripon Trad Festival. In Montpellier, the Rallye Défi Petite Nation and the Medieval Festival bring adrenaline and history to life. For a more intimate evening, head to Papineauville’s Salle Desjardins de la Petite-Nation, where cozy performances await curious minds. Every event reflects the warmth and creative spirit of the region, offering discovery, emotion… and a true sense of wonder.
