Montmorency Falls
Just spectacular! There's no other word to describe the Montomorency Falls in winter. The falls are frozen over and one can only look up in awe at the wonders of nature. The upper section has a very nice walking trail where you can view the falls from a different viewpoint and you can also stand directly above the falls on the bridge, see photo above!
