Canada’s most visited museum, a huge park right next to the city, and a small town with the world’s largest log cabin. Here, everything is measured.
Montebello
Château Montebello is said to be the world’s largest log cabin. While this is true, Château Montebello is so much more. This Fairmont resort hotel boasts luxurious accommodations in natural surroundings as well as refined gastronomy. Plenty of outdoor activities are offered year-round, just as they are at the Château’s neighbour, Kenauk Nature, one of North America’s largest private nature reserves.
Close by, the former Montebello train station houses ChocoMotive, a chocolate shop and Économusée. Meanwhile, the Fromagerie Montebello gives historical names to its artisanal cheeses... you’ll truly savour the past!
Montebello is the name seigneur Louis-Joseph Papineau gave to his manor.
Parc Oméga is an animal lovers’ delight. Observe the free-roaming wildlife from the comfort of your car or while strolling along the trails.
