Petite-Rivière-Saint-François

Petite-Rivière-Saint-François occupies a steep stretch of the St. Lawrence River’s north shore in Quebec’s Charlevoix region. The river has an estuarine character here, while the Laurentian Mountains rise immediately inland, creating a clear transition from shoreline to highland. Founded in 1675, the community ranks among the oldest French settlements on this coast. Above the village, Le Massif de Charlevoix is a major ski destination, and the wider area forms part of the Charlevoix Biosphere Reserve.
