Île Saint-Bernard - Refuge Faunique Marguerite-D'Youville

Bordered by Lake Saint-Louis and Châteauguay River, Île Saint-Bernard reveals all of its natural and cultural highlights. Former seigneurie of Châteauguay, this territory has preserved various historic buildings, including the old mill of 1686 that can be visited Sundays in summer with the “Les Secrets de l’Île” activity. The island’s major attraction is, without a doubt, the Marguerite-D’Youville refuge, which encompasses eight kilometres of paths intersecting different ecosystems that house exceptional flora and fauna. For an unforgettable visit, audio tour in nature and a pontoon ride down the river, accompanied by a naturalist guide, is recommended.
