Para quem gosta de estar perto da natureza e quer fazer um passeio diferente, as cataratas Dorwin em Rawdon, Quebec, são uma ótima opção. A apenas 1h30 de Montreal pela 25N (veja dicas), as cataratas Dorwin são compostas de três parques: as cataratas, a praia e as cascatas. Um único bilhete (por pessoa) dá acesso aos três parques! Você pode passar o dia, fazer um piquenique ou churrasco, a dois ou a muitos!
Neste passeio começamos pelo parque das cataratas; diversas trilhas permitem uma caminhada de minutos ou horas. Entre uma trilha e outra, seguindo o barulho das águas, pode-se parar para contemplar as quedas. Por questões de segurança não é permitido entrar na água; há também uma área para piqueniques, churrascos e um parquinho infantil.
Já na praia municipal (de lago) é possível entrar na água ou apenas sentar-se à beira “mar” para contemplar a beleza do local. Caiaques podem ser alugados pelos aventureiros de plantão!
A última parada foi no parque das cascatas. Descobrimos que este é a parada mais popular, pois ficamos surpresos com o número de visitantes que encontramos. Pode-se acampar nas redondezas e inclusive cachorros podem entrar na água, deixando o passeio muito mais interessante!
Tudo isso nós falamos nos vídeos, porém descobrimos depois que eles ficaram sem áudio por causa do pau de selfie... Erro de novatos! Lição aprendida e teremos áudio da próxima vez.

There is a legend about the Dorwin waterfall. The legend was probably meant to convert more native American to Catholicism by mixing both religion like they did so many time in the past centuries. They say that a young beautiful native American girl became christian and devoted herself to god while a very powerful Indian sorcerer wanted her as wife. She refused the union and instead chose to marry the worst enemy of the powerful shaman. The sorcerer got mad and while the young girl was near his lair to get some plant he throw her in the ravine. A thunderbolt stroke the earth and god (christian) change the beautiful native American girl in waterfall and the mad sorcerer in stone. They say the sorcerer been changed in stone cause u can see a Indian head shape (profile) just over the waterfall. (optical illusion). The site is absolutely gorgeous.
Bong Voyage- Quebec Ep 3- Rotten Cheeses at Rawdon Falls
Location details below!
Bong Voyage is a series which chronicles my travels around the world in a pursuit to seek out the most beautiful and inspiring places, in cannabis-friendly locations (mostly).
We begin this journey with our own backyard, the province of Quebec where our natural beauty is reflected in our slogan La Belle Province which translates to The Beautiful Province. So diverse and unique, you will definitely remember, as our poorly translated official motto points out, Je me souviens!
.
On this episode, we visit one of the most famous watering holes close to the city. If you're an immigrant, your parents probably brought you there as a youngster, it's sort of a rite of passage in becoming a Canadian. For those who are not familiar, I'm talking about Rawdon.
Park des cascades is the main attraction and it is quite a unique place with big rocky outcrops which allow smaller rivers and waterfalls to flow through them creating natural jacuzzis, perfect for hanging out in. The vibe is super laid back, and it does get hectic sometimes and now, they even have a convenient store that blasts reggeaton all day on their outdoor speakers.
Here are the coordinates to park des Cascades:
If it gets too crowded, you can always drive a couple of minute down the street to the all mighty Dorwin Falls, where the vibe is much more relaxing and quiet. Here are the coordinates:
Swimming is forbidden on the upper level of the falls so it's more of a place to go hang out and soak in the beautiful natural surroundings.
Your day pass gives you access to both Dorwin Falls and Parc Des Cascades as well as the municipal sandy beach which we did not explore on this episode because it's not nearly as cool and beautiful as the other locations.
We also tried some local products which turned out to be a letdown, kind of what is happening with the legal cannabis market here in Canada.
Hope you enjoy this episode and remember to consume responsibly!
