What visitors say

The Belvédère des chutes sits in the centre of Roxton Falls, where the Rivière Noire splits around a small island and drops over two cascades of roughly nine metres. The platform, built in 2013, gives a clear view of the falls and the river, and the few visitors who have reviewed it describe a quiet spot with pleasant scenery.

It's a short stop rather than a destination: look at the falls, sit at a picnic table, and carry on. The site is free, dogs are welcome on a leash, and it's on La Campagnarde cycling trail, part of the Route verte, so it makes a natural break on a ride. The river is covered by Quebec's general sport-fishing rules, so anyone planning to cast below the falls needs a Quebec licence and should check the current regulations for local restrictions first.
