Chartierville
In Chartierville, you will be impressed by the beauty of the scenery and by the optical phenomenon of the “Magnetic Hill”. A magnetic hill is a steep slope with a magnetic force. To go down the hill, you must press the accelerator and to go up, you can put your vehicle in neutral. You will climb up the hill without even using your motor. Optical illusion or magnetic phenomenon? It is yours to discover… In addition to that, the rest area will allow you to admire beautiful sunsets and maybe even catch sight of a white-tailed deer or a moose. Then, visit the Centre d’interprétation de la mine d’or, where you will be initiated to gold digging in a basin or a river. You will learn more about the miners’ history and will discover the remnants of their activities, which date back to the middle of the 19th century. If you want to go wilderness camping, the municipality also offers you seven campsites.
