Welcome !
Known for the diversity of its year-round outdoor and cultural activities, Saint-Donat has been welcoming visitors looking for a place to reconnect with nature for more than 50 years.
Our slogan, “ Parc Naturel Habité,” beautifully captures the vastness of our mountainous region, home to majestic lakes and the warm welcome of our residents.
With its wide array of free recreational and cultural activities, Saint-Donat is now more accessible than ever. Located in the heart of town, the iconic Parc des Pionniers is a favourite spot for a casual picnic or a swim in the summer and snowshoeing or cross-country skiing during the winter months. Special events held throughout the year are all the more reason to come make happy memories with your family and friends.
Options abound to thrill any outdoor enthusiast, from cross-country skiing and snowmobiling to biking, snowshoeing, kayaking, and boating. And let’s not forget golfing, downhill skiing, horseback riding, sailing, and even mushroom hunting.
While it’s easy to take a day trip to Saint-Donat from Montréal, I encourage you to come spend a few days at an inn, cottage, or condo to fully soak
up the benefits of living in this glorious place. Take the opportunity to indulge in our restaurants and cafés and visit our shops during your stay.
As a well-known vacation destination, Saint-Donat is a desirable place for people looking to purchase a second home on the waterfront or in the mountains. Our town is also becoming an increasingly popular choice among retirees who want to settle in an exceptional area where they can enjoy recreational and cultural facilities all year round.
Enjoy your stay in Saint -Donat !
Joé Deslauriers, maire
