1. Les Excursions L'Air Du Lac
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 161 reviews
Les Excursions L'Air Du Lac has been in business for the past 10 years. Our boat is a Pontoon with comfortable padded leather chairs, tables for clients to bring their beverages or snacks. The boat also has a functional bathroom. We offer two types of cruises. The first commentated cruise, which needs to be reserved in advance, called Le Chemin De Croix, leaves everyday at 10am for a duration of 2h30 including a tasting of cheese from L'Abbaye de Saint-Benoit and smoked trout mousse. This cruise makes its way to the monastery of L'Abbaye de Saint-Benoit-du-lac where you get to admire the Monastery from the lake. Since it is our tenth anniversary we offer a 10% discount on Le Chemin De Croix. The second cruise with duration of one hour named La Route Du Monstre is ideal for families. The cruise is commentated on the history of Magog, the lake and the monster. It leaves at multiple times during the day such as 1pm, 2:15pm, 3:30pm and 5pm so reservations are not mandatory. The final option which we offer is a private cruise with our captain that is ideal for anniversaries, marriages or reunions. You can customize the duration of the cruise and choose at what time it leaves which is perfect, if you want to see the sunset on the lake.

We had booked a chair lift to go up to the top of the mountain ahead of time which was wise because the beautiful weather attracted many people. The view from the top was magnificent since the Fall colors were spectacular. They are well organized with parking and safety-minded access to the chair-lifts.
3. Le Cep D'Argent

Located in the beautiful Eastern Townships, the Cep d'Argent vineyard offers quality wines and numerous memorable touristic tours. Enjoy the exceptional view on the Magog River and on the vines' field where the hard work from the Scieur brothers paid off magnificently. Le Cep d'Argent, lovechild of two passionate French wine growers, is the oldest vineyard in the Estrie region.

We stayed in Magog and drove 20min to get to Le Cep d'Argent vineyard for a wine tasting and it was a very positive experience. You purchase your tickets outside for the wines you want to taste ($1 per coupon and each wine is anywhere from $1 to $4). There were two of us, so we got all different ones and shared, which maximized the amount we could taste! It was very well organized, with tastings taking place inside, adhering to all COVID requirements (mask inside while walking around, but can take it off to taste the wines and chat with your friends). Service was offered easily in French and English. We had a number of wines we liked and ended up purchasing 7 bottles :) Though a current promotion now is if you purchase 11 bottles, you get the 12th free! The grounds were very nice to walk around in as well; we highly recommend this wine tasting!
4. Marais de la Riviere aux Cerises
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 386 reviews
Situé dans le cœur touristique des Cantons-de-l'Est, entre le parc du Mont-Orford et le lac Memphrémagog, il se laisse découvrir à quelques pas seulement du centre-ville de Magog. Là, sur un territoire de 1,5 km², boisés, marais, marécages et tourbière s'enlacent et engendrent une biodiversité impressionnante. Des centaines d'oiseaux, de mammifères et d'amphibiens trouvent au Marais de quoi se nourrir, s'abriter, chanter et se reproduire durant toute l'année. En plus de son réseau de sentiers accessible à l'année, le Marais de la Rivière aux Cerises vous offre une multitude d'activités tout au long de l'année! Sorties en kayak, expositions dans le centre d'interprétation du Marais, boutique, terrasses, ateliers et conférences, camp de jour scientifique pour les 7 à 13 ans, et bien plus! Les chiens sont acceptés sur les sentiers, mais doivent être tenus en laisse (1,5 mètres) pour la sécurité des usagers et pour préserver le milieu naturel !

We took a nice long walk around this point which is right next to downtown. It is well equipped with playground structures for children, public washrooms and a restaurant. You get a wonderful view of Mont Orford which is across the bay.
