Saint-Onésime-d’Ixworth

As the west entry point to the Kamouraska highlands, Saint-Onésime-d’Ixworth has made the only covered bridge remaining in the region a source of pride and the symbol of a mobilized community with a rich history. One of the first townships to develop in the early 19th century, this peaceful village is surrounded by forest and water, offering an ideal environment for nature lovers and great outdoors enthusiasts. The Sentiers Ixworth forest path and interpretative tour is a walk like no other! Accessible year-round snowshoeing, hiking or cross-country skiing, it is a unique forest environment, an important deer wintering habitat, a salmon river and location of the emblematic Ixworth Falls of the Rivière Sainte-Anne. After your visit to the Collège Bridge, treat yourself to a splendid view of the mythic Chemin du Vide. Saint-Onésime-d’Ixworth… it’s where Kamouraska is at its greenest!
