The Saint-Lawrence pilots village facing the channel

• Coming from the Old City (Old Quebec), take Dufferin-Montmorency highway (440 East).

• Coming from Montreal or the South Shore, take Boulevard de la Capitale (highway 40 east) then the Île d’Orléans Bridge, which crosses the river, and continue straight to the traffic light at the top of the hill. Just after leaving Saint-Laurent, you will quickly reach the picturesque village of Saint-Jean. Take the meandering road called Chemin-Royal to enjoy an enchanting, panoramic view.

You are invited to visit our village on the Island next to Quebec City.

The architectural heritage is preserved beautifully, wires are now underground et the view of the St-Lawrence River is exceptional.  No matter the weather, you will feel at home with us !!!
