Choinière Reservoir

Highlight • Trail

Réservoir Choinière is a large 4.7-square-kilometre artificial lake that was built in 1977 by the construction of a dam and dike to regulate the flow of the North Yamaska River. Today, the reservoir today forms the vibrant centre of Parc national de la Yamaska, and is a great place for a scenic day on the water with kayaks, canoes, pedal boats, rowboats, and stand-up paddleboards all available for rent. On the shores, sunbathers, runners, walkers, bikers and tourists enjoy the sparkling water's edge.

Lemieux Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

Built in 1967 after a severe drought, the reservoir serves as a backup water supply for the city of Granby. La Granbyenne trail passes between the reservoir and the nearby North Yamaska River, creating a beautiful waterside stretch with open views across the water as you continue around Lac Boivin.
