Les sentiers des Etchemins is a tourism project that habiter en région salutes, because this initiative, put forward by visionary people from the Etchemins region, is one of Saint-Magloire’s strongest tourist attractions.

Here are a number of images of the Mont Bonnet trail.

New parking lot in Saint-Magloire

Over the past few months, the municipality of Saint-Magloire has acquired a plot of land adjacent to the main entrance to the trail leading hikers to the summit of Mont Bonnet, in rang St-Cyrille. One parcel of land has been resold, and the other will be used for a parking lot, as well as for toilets, shelters and wilderness camping.

« People will no longer need to park along the site owner’s (Stéphane Veilleux) road, which will be less dangerous for everyone. Since we’re expecting an increase in visitor numbers over the next few years, we know that we’re going to become an important gateway to the trails, especially on 281, » recalls Mayor Daniel Thibault.
