Le Train du Massif de Charlevoix

Rail Cruise between Mountains and River!

Travelling 140 km between Quebec City and La Malbaie, the Train du Massif of Le Charlevoix proposes a singular rail cruise experience along mountains and river. On their journey, passengers enjoy rare exposure to breathtaking vistas, discovering the Charlevoix's many hidden treasures as the trip unfurls.

The Train is launching three new exciting rail cruise packages for Summer 2012: The Baie-Saint-Paul Discovery Cruise, La Malbaie Getaway and the Supper Cruise. Travellers on the first two trips enjoy a three-hour stopover to discover Baie-Saint-Paul's countless attractions. Theme circuits and tours devised to charm gastronomy and adventure lovers, culture buffs and fans of the great outdoors extend a lovely invitation to explore this authentic region.

On board, passengers experience a genuine, distinctive culinary adventure in Charlevoix gastronomy, savouring exclusive menus prepared by Chef Patrick Turcot from the Fairmont Le Manoir Richelieu. Composed of the region's fresh, full-flavoured ingredients, field-to-fork menus vary from one rail cruise to the next - a gourmand breakfast, tantalizing tapas fragrant with terroir tastes, or a four-course gastronomical dinner.

As the journey and nature unfurl, an on-board multimedia show modulates the railcar ambience in synergy with the passing landscape. The magic begins, as sweeping vistas take centre stage, omnipresent, nourishing both the heart and spirit.
