Timeline
14:57
Start at Bar La Voute for a draft beer or cocktail. It is close to the wharf and a good place to settle in before the rush.
15:42
Walk to Parc Saint-Eugène. It is a short walk from the bar area and offers a clear view toward the west. Find a spot on the grass or benches to wait for the light to change.
16:27
Quai de La Tuque (Saint-Maurice River)
Head to Quai de La Tuque. The sun sets toward the WSW, casting a warm glow over the Saint-Maurice River and the dam. This is the key moment for the view.
16:57
End the night at La Pecheresse Microbrasserie. It is nearby in the same district and stays open late, perfect for digesting the view with a local beer or a full meal.
