This Autumn, I put together a list of top five hikes that I found to be accessible and well worth the drive.

1. Mont du Lac des Cygnes
We start with Mont du Lac des Cygnes, which is an amazing hike located in the Charlevoix region of Quebec. More specifically, it is situated in Grand-Jardins national park.
The hike is considered to be moderate, and it starts with a wide trail surrounded by the beautiful forest and views.
The trail is well marked and maintained, and particularly beautiful during this time of year. The colorful trees surrounding the vast landscape makes it a favorite for those who love Autumn.

2. Mount of Dôme
The , commonly known in French as Mont du Dôme, is an 8 Km hike split into two sections: one steep rock climb, one gradual ascent.
Both lead to a summit with views across Charlevoix. And because of how the trails connect, you can visit nearby peaks without leaving the mountain, making it a favorite for Autumn backpacking trips.
