Introducing Sherbrooke
This bustling city is perfect for refueling on modern conveniences before returning to the Eastern Townships. The historic center sits at the confluence of two rivers and is bisected by Rue Wellington and Rue King, the main commercial arteries. It’s recommended that you stick to this area, ‘Vieux Sherbrooke,’ where the smattering of stellar restaurants and cafés stands defiant against the blight of overdevelopment in other parts of the city. Sherbrooke lies along Hwy 10, about 25km northeast of Magog.
