The Magog River flows through the heart of Sherbrooke, offering a tranquil escape with well-maintained riverside parks and walking paths. Visitors can follow the Promenade du Magog, a multi-use trail that winds along the riverbanks, crossing historic bridges and passing through green spaces like Parc Jacques-Cartier. It's a popular spot for jogging, cycling, or simply enjoying the sound of the water. In warmer months, kayakers and paddleboarders take to the river, while autumn brings stunning foliage views. The path connects several neighborhoods, making it a scenic route to explore the city.
