Just an hour north of Sugarloaf, on the shores of Lac Megantic, is the Village of Piopolis, home to Hebergement aux Cinq Sens, yurts & hospitality, for a romantic get-away, or a base for outdoors adventures on the Mt. Gosford & Megantic trails, or on the Lake: winter, & all seasons!
“See, Smell, Feel, Taste & Listen”
www.auxcinqsens.ca is the website: if you want a great escape, it is so close & yet a whole country away! & the dollar exchange makes is downright cheap for U.S. visitors….!!
Marc Bedard on Lac Megantic’s progress after last Summer’s derailment PART II
Marc Bedard, who works at Trafisa, talks with WSKI about the struggles and progress the town is making after the 4th largest rail disaster in Canada’s History. On July 6, 2013 a train transporting crude oil derailed causing an explosion that killed 47 people and destroyed 30 buildings – half of Lac Megantic’s Downtown area. He shared pictures of landmarks being torn down and new construction taking place as the determined community undergoes the extraordinary task of not only rebuilding the downtown area but also relocating it.
