Sherbrooke at a Glance
Settled in the early 19th century at the point where the Magog and Saint-Francois
Rivers meet, Sherbrooke has grown to become the only major city in Quebec's
Eastern Township region and features a number of enjoyable activities and events
for visitors. The city hosts a number of family-friendly festivals throughout
the summer including the Fete
du Lac des Nations fireworks festival in July, and August's Traditions
of the World Festival, which celebrates different cultures across the globe.
The Sherbrooke
Historical Interpretation Centre is full of interesting information on the
city's history, while the Museum
of Science and Nature will keep visitors busy for hours with its interactive
exhibits. Those looking for outdoor activities may enjoy a bike ride along the
city's portion of La
Route Verte, or can check out the Parc
National de Frontenac. Located just outside the city, the park offers a
host of pursuits for all seasons including hiking, fishing, canoeing, snowshoeing
and cross-country skiing.
