Give your taste buds a real treat with a tour of the region that takes in some of the finest flavours of the region, along with some splendid scenery.  

Lanaudière is one of the richest agricultural regions of Quebec, making it a great destination for agrotourism. Try one of our recommended tours called ‘Chemins de campagne’ (Country Roads) with multiple stops at various lanaudois farms and other businesses. You’ll get to meet some friendly people with a real passion for their work, as you learn about their businesses and sample or buy the fruits of their labours.  

The types of produce are many and varied: fine meats, including bison, venison, lamb and poultry; specialty cheeses; and of course numerous kinds of fruits and vegetables, including some you may not know. Fresh and flavourful, Lanaudière produce is among the best anywhere, and it’s all here waiting for you to try.

How about a stop at a local vineyard? Lanaudière has these too, where you can sample our unique wines and share the passion of the wine-producers. Open a bottle at a local picnic site, perhaps beside a lake or river, or at the inn or cabin where you’re staying… this is a true lanaudois experience!

Got a sweet tooth? Visit one of the many chocolate makers, bakeries, jam-makers or beekeepers of the region and treat your palate! Why not try the region’s famous potato donuts or edible flowers as a different meal experience? To get closer to the land, stop at one of the participating farms to pick your own produce, or at a produce stand to buy fresh, delectable fruits and vegetables.

Perhaps you like eating (and catching) fish? You could rent a boat at one of our many outfitters and land your own supper! With family or friends, this is a unique experience you’ll never forget.

In fact, every kind of dining experience is possible in Lanaudière. From friendly country-style cooking to the finest gastronomy, our region is rightly famous for its restaurants and chefs. Make sure you sample some authentic Lanaudière cooking at a local restaurant, cozy inn or sugar shack in the heart of nature. There are so many options to choose from!  

Lanaudière is a treat for all the senses. Take to our scenic country roads and see where they lead you – there’s so much to sample and taste, a new and wonderful experience around every corner!
