Activities/Attractions: Abitibi-Témiscamingue lies in the western part of Quebec, skirting the natural frontier of Ontario. From north to south, its 65,000 km2 of lavish forests, fish-rich waters, dynamic cities and picturesque villages stretch from the 47th to the 49th parallel. Nearly 145,000 persons have chosen to live in Abitibi-Témiscamingue.

Our closeness to our roots, which are still quite young, has nurtured our determination to make this land our home and to build a healthy life of exceptional quality.

Abitibi-Témiscamingue’s history is closely linked to natural resources development. The region came into being in the late 18th century with the discovery of its agricultural and mining riches. However there is evidence of Algonquin occupation in the region for more than 8,000 years. Their contribution to the region’s growth is very significant and their heritage can still be felt and seen in seven communities.

The 22,000 lakes and rivers found in Abitibi-Témiscamingue have had a catalytic effect on regional growth. The only passageway for more than two hundred years, water provided explorers the means to travel the region. Lakes and rivers are still key assets to the people of Abitibi-Témiscamingue, and the development of this vital resource constitutes a major issue.

From north to south, the diversity of wildlife, flora and relief make the region unique. When you visit Abitibi-Témiscamingue, you visit two regions in one that are connected by the watershed divide, not by a hyphen. On one side, water travels north to James Bay and on the other, it flows south and drains into the St. Lawrence River.
