Audet

In 2002, this parish – originally named for the patron saint of hunters, Saint-Hubert de Spalding – celebrated its centennial. The municipality later adopted its current name to honour its first postmaster, Mr. Audet. Nestled between the American border and the Chaudière riverbed, at 535 metres above sea level, the village offers a unique view of the surrounding area. The Samson River crosses the hamlet at its eastern tip. Residents make their living from seasonal tourism linked to fishing, hunting and snowmobiling, as well as from forestry work, agriculture and maple products.
