Hop on a gourmet cruise

Enjoy a delightful cruise on Lake Memphremagog aboard the Grand Cru, a luxurious catamaran that offers cruises until mid-October. Surrounded by sparkling waters and crimson-hued forests, your cruise turns into a complete experience: a refined meal and a musical performance complement the majestic scenery that unfolds before you. With a variety of cruises offered at different times of day, you can choose the option that appeals to you most: in the morning sunshine with breakfast and a good cup of coffee; in the afternoon for an aperitif on the waves; or in the evening for dinner under the stars. And for an elegant Halloween celebration, book your ticket now for the masquerade ball on October 30, 2026!

New since this summer: dinner cruises now include the multisensory experience Murmures – Hidden Tales of Le Grand Cru, which creates a unique atmosphere where reality and imagination collide…

Culinary workshops with local flair

Now is the time to make the most of bountiful harvests and homegrown foods. Head to Espace Ratatouille, the ultimate destination for foodies in the Eastern Townships. There, you can hone your culinary skills, learn to prepare gourmet meals, expand your knowledge, and savour seasonal produce through a variety of workshops and private classes.

Prefer to take a break from cooking instead? With the Chef’s Table experience, a gourmet meal is prepared right before your eyes, complete with insights into the techniques and inspiration behind the dishes. Everything you need to nourish your mind, tantalize your taste buds and savour the moment!

A cozy meal by the fire

After exploring Magog’s beautiful hiking trails, stop by the Burger Pub in Orford (about a 5-minute drive away) for a cozy break. This charming restaurant with a retro vibe welcomes you to its stunning terrace, complete with fire pits, where you can enjoy the generous menu. In addition to tasty burgers, a selection of signature dishes proves that comfort, originality and finesse go together perfectly.

A stunning view of the fall colours on Mont Orford enhances your meal by the fire as you wrap yourself in a blanket and sip a craft beer. Vegetarian and non-alcoholic options are also available.
