One thing we know for sure is la belle province is filled with beautiful scenery. And if you've been wondering where exactly these views can be found, here's one: Mont-Orford's mountainside walkway trail.

This lovely mountain is located in the Eastern Townships and is only about an hour and a half drive from Montreal.

And if you've ever dreamt of walking among the clouds, this spot feels pretty close to doing so.

To find the walkway path, simply go to the ski resort reception and follow "The Circuit Altitude," which will take you past different observation points, lookouts and picnic areas, before arriving at one of the most breathtaking views in Quebec.

And the best part? It's free — as long as you go through the ski resort, but there are other trails belonging to the Parc national du Mont-Orford that require a fee.
