Preissac pairs quiet, lake-country living with the energy of a resourceful northern community. On the shores of Lac Preissac, residents spend summers casting for walleye and pike, launching kayaks at sunrise, and strolling to scenic viewpoints over the Barlow River. Local trails and the airy footbridge lead to sweeping lookouts, while nearby Mont Chaudron rewards a short hike with panoramic geology-on-display. Winter brings well-groomed snowmobile routes and cross-country tracks, keeping the outdoors within easy reach all year. For services, events, and practical details, the Municipalité de Preissac keeps newcomers and long-timers in the know.
Commuters appreciate quick connections to employment, shopping, and dining in Val-d'Or and Rouyn-Noranda, with Amos also within comfortable range. Families are served by the Centre de services scolaire de l’Or-et-des-Bois, offering local primary options and broader academic and extracurricular programs in nearby hubs. Weekend explorers can head to the boreal ridges and glassy lakes of Parc national d’Aiguebelle, one of the region’s signature destinations. The town’s identity is also tied to the historic Cadillac Fault mining belt; the world-class LaRonde Complex underscores a legacy of innovation and skilled trades that still drives opportunity.
