3rd Destination Indian Summer (autumn foliage coloring spots):Québec City Jean Lesage International Airport (CXQB)

valid Oct. 13th until Oct 20th

Already the flag of Canada offers the hint for our next "Indian Summer" destination. We would do wrong to Canada if you only mention the USA in this section. Here in Quebec you can see beautiful "Fire Forests" in almost all provinces, as the autumn forests are also called here as a result of the reddish discolorations. You can start from the beautiful historic city of Quebec City, simply into the Laurentides - either along the developed St. Lorenz-River towards La Malbaie, or along the route 175 through huge forests towards Saguenay. Ongoing postcard idyl.
