The secrets of a family stay in Alma Lac-Saint-Jean

Family fun at Alma Lac-Saint-Jean is very simple. With the nature that surrounds us, the possibilities are endless, ranging from downhill tubing at Mont-Lac-Vert to the visit of a small farm at the Centre d’interprétation de l’agriculture et de la ruralité. It is the perfect place to get away from the routine and to experience new adventures.

Grey weather will not slow you down since the area is filled with indoor activities for the young and the old, like the Mégafun centre, for example. The Mario Tremblay sports centre or the Mistouk sports centre both let you skate throughout the winter and the ice trail in Dam-en-terre, on the other hand, offers a breathtaking view on floodlit nature over a distance of 1.5 km. Furthermore, you will find the Économusée de Miel des ruisseaux, where you will discover the secrets of honey through an educational journey, regardless of the weather.

The area is also the perfect place to hit the slopes with your family and to end your day with a good movie at the cinema. Alma Lac-Saint-Jean, where family memories are created.
