Higher than the everfamous Niagra Falls and just a few minutes from the outskirts of downtown Quebec City: a visit to Montmorency Falls is a guaranteed must on any visit to Quebec’s capital city.

Located in the Parc de la ChuteMontmorency (Montmorency Falls Park), the waterfall is the highest in the Province of Quebec and the eighth highest in Canada. Though not as wide as Niagra Falls, the falls are 83 metres high, meaning that they’re some 30 metres higher than those of Niagra.
