Paddling near Lévis, Quebec

Lévis sits on the south shore of the St. Lawrence River in the Chaudière-Appalaches region, directly across from Québec City. The St. Lawrence itself is the centrepiece — Parc nautique Lévy on Rue Saint-Laurent gives paddlers direct water access with views of Québec's historic district. Beyond the river, the surrounding region is laced with rivers including the Jacques-Cartier, Chaudière, Malbaie, and Etchemin, ranging from calm flatwater to whitewater canyon runs.
