Around the estate
Venise-en-Québec, between lake and vineyards
An elegant destination on the shores of Lake Champlain, offering variety and entertainment through its many activities, winter and summer alike.
On Lake Champlain
The lake, right at your door
Château Venise borders Lake Champlain directly — beaches, watersports, and sunsets are part of daily life on the estate, no car required.
2.5 km nature trail
An accessible, safe trail for a quiet walk, just minutes from the estate.
Noah Spa
Relaxation and wellness services to extend the calm of your stay.
Lake Champlain Golf
A course right on the shore of the lake.
Wine route
The Wine Route stretches 140 km across the Eastern Townships and brings together 20 vineyards and cideries — some among Quebec's oldest, several certified organic — for an updated take on terroir. On its own, it produces 60% of Quebec's wine. Plan on visiting 3 to 4 vineyards a day, 30 to 45 minutes per visit (at least an hour for guided tours).
Watersports — Lake Champlain
A paradise for windsurfing enthusiasts, Venise-en-Québec sits on the shores of Lake Champlain and offers a host of watersports — boating, kayaking, canoeing, jet-skiing, and even kitesurfing.
After a day of activities
From the table to the terrace
Between vineyard visits or a kayak outing, the area's restaurants and markets round out a stay spent mostly on the estate's own terrace.
