in the Gatineau Hills are incredible. Usually best in late September and early October, the whole region is a feast for your eyes.During the spring months, and "break up time", locals place a barrel on the ice of the Gatineau River. Bets are placed as to when this barrel will sink. Nothing spectacular to see, but if you look for it, it will be there.
