Canada

Canada is a combination of modern urban living and natural splendour the likes of which can be found nowhere else on Earth. The country’s famously liveable and dynamic cities, like Vancouver, Toronto, Ottawa and Montreal, are exciting and pleasant in equal measure, while the country’s national parks offer pristine encounters with the natural world. Most travelers will understandably head for Banff National Park, a place of unreal beauty with rocky precipices, evergreen forests and translucent turquoise lakes, but it would be a mistake to neglect the island-dotted waterscapes of the ThoUSAnd Islands National Park or the rugged wonder of Nahanni National Park Reserve, to name but a few. There really has been no better time than this to visit the world’s second largest country.

Quebec City

It all started in 1535, when Jacques Cartier landed here, and the first trading port was created in what is now Quebec. Since then, the city had become the province's capital and a destination popular for its sights, architecture and food. Visit the famous Chateau Frontenac, the world's most photographed hotel, or one of the other 36 national historic sites, each a sight to behold in its own right. But walking through the Old Port or the Plains of Abraham is perhaps the best way to feel and breathe in the historical atmosphere of the city.

Come to Saint-Hippolyte for the perfect recreational decamp.
