It’s also a fantastic place to explore the unspoiled nature, take a walk around a gorgeous lake, or stroll through the downtown sops, art galleries, and restaurants. Magog knows how to treat its visitors, and it may be because it has been a resort destination for over 100 years. There’s so much to see and do in Magog, so you better start planning and prioritizing because you don’t want to miss a thing!

Summers in Magog offer travelers loads of outdoor activities. Parc de la Baie-de-Magog is a great place to start any day. The park offers two access points for swimming in Lake Memphremagog. The beaches on the shores of the lake provide ample space for visitors to lay out in the sun or build a sand castle. The park also has walking paths, grassy areas, and a skate park. Merry Point, the main portion of the park, offers the best view of the lake in the background and fields of flowers to smell. In the winter, Magog’s outdoor activity options are just as plentiful. Sentier Glacé is a 1.5-mile ice path that runs along Lake Memphremagog. Magog also boasts 6 different outdoor ice rinks for visitors to enjoy. Quai MacPherson Wharf, built in 1850 on the easter shore of the lake, is a tourist and local hot spot. In the summer this is a launching point for all lake activities, cruises, and boat tours. In the winter, the place is much quieter and makes for a great lakeside stroll. Another great place to spend the day is at nearby Cep d’Argent and Vignoble Chemin de la Riviere, two vineyards that offer exceptional tastings, tours, and views of Magog. Vignoble Chemin also serves up an ice wine that will quench that summer thirst while Cep d’Argent makes a delicious port you have to try. Don’t forget to grab a bottle for the trip home!
