What to do in Gaspésie in December

In December, Gaspésie takes on a festive atmosphere. People take advantage of the holidays to plan a getaway, visit Christmas markets, and take part in holiday activities, including the parade in New Richmond. If there’s snow, it’s time to bring out the skis; if not, it’s a great time to go for a walk or a hike, or to enjoy a coffee or hot chocolate. Since many businesses close during this period, it’s best to check ahead before setting out.
