Introducing Île Aux Coudres
Quiet, rural Île aux Coudres is what those people disappointed by better-known Île d’Orléans are seeking. Standing on the island’s more exposed southwestern side, where birds land on rocky promontories, it could be the remotest of gulf islands. This impression continues in the forested hinterlands, above the 26km road that circles the island. The hills of the north shore are never far from view, but this is nonetheless a place to forget the rest of the world.
