Beauharnois pairs riverfront living with everyday convenience and quick access to bigger-city amenities. Set along the Beauharnois Canal and the St. Lawrence River, it’s minutes from Autoroute 30, making commutes to Montreal, Châteauguay, and Salaberry-de-Valleyfield straightforward. Cyclists love the canal-side paths that connect to the province-wide Route Verte network; plan weekend rides or school-run commutes via the well-mapped Route Verte system on the official site at Route Verte.
Local landmarks add character and curiosity. The immense Beauharnois Generating Station offers seasonal tours through Hydro‑Québec, letting you step inside one of the world’s largest hydroelectric facilities. For culture and discovery, Pointe‑du‑Buisson — Québec Archaeology Museum presents 5,000 years of human history on a scenic peninsula. Ship-watching is a pastime in itself here; check the St. Lawrence Seaway’s lock activity and learn more about the engineering that drives regional commerce on the official Seaway site.
