48 Hours of Family Winter Fun

7 stops

2 days

What if you took advantage of the winter season to plan a family getaway? In Granby and the surrounding region, outdoor activities, fascinating discoveries and culinary stops are always on the program! Here’s a two-day itinerary inviting your entire clan to experience some truly unforgettable moments.

  • Day 1
  • Day 2

Parc national de la Yamaska

Put on your hats and mittens, it’s time to go play outside! The first stop: Parc National de la Yamaska. Grab your snowshoes and head out to explore the forest’s snow-covered trails. Let the children lead the way and keep an eye out for the ones who’ll be the first to spot wildlife tracks in the snow. With a little luck, you might even see a white-tailed deer! Would you like to give your family more options? The park also offers cross-country skiing, fatbike trails, sliding and ice fishing, depending on the weather. All you need to do is decide which activity is sure to please your troops. And don’t forget to bring a thermos filled with hot chocolate, along with some tasty snacks. Nothing tops enjoying a foodie break in the middle of nature before continuing your adventure!

Café de la Brûlerie

After a morning of playing outdoors, chances are you’ll need to fill those little hungry tummies! Head to the Café de la Brûlerie, in the heart of Granby, where you’ll savour a nice warm lunch. In the cozy setting of this café bistro, recharge your batteries with some delicious fish and chips, a burger, a bowl of poutine, or perhaps some chicken ranch or cod tacos. There’s even a children’s menu! And while they’re enjoying their meal, why not treat yourself to a cup of coffee freshly roasted in-house? It’s a perfect opportunity to slow down a little before carrying on with your day!
Discover

Fromagerie Julio

Before wrapping up this first day, why not try a few more foodie delights? Make your way to Fromagerie Julio, a family-run business in Granby where dairy products take centre stage. Visit the farm boutique to discover the range of delicacies created with the milk their own herd. Cheddar, yoghurt and ice cream, ready to be savoured, are waiting! While you’re there, why not stock up on a few goodies to take home? And you simply can’t leave without trying the cheese curds! After all, holidays are also a time to treat yourself a little!
Discover

Hôtel Castel

At the end of this first day of playing outside, it’s now time to check in at Hôtel Castel in Granby. However, your young ones might want the fun to continue for a little while! If they still have some energy left, stop by the hotel’s game room, where they’ll be able to challenge each other at table hockey, table soccer, or table tennis before going to bed. And for parents who’d like to unwind from their busy schedule, the outdoor hot tubs invite you to enjoy a moment of pure bliss. After all this, the entire family will be ready for a good night’s sleep.
Discover

Le P'tit Monde des Grands

On this second day, your kids will be the ones in charge! Head to Le P’tit Monde des Grands, an interactive museum where children can experience hands-on all kinds of grown-up jobs! And no way will they just watch what’s going on. Here, they can touch, climb and have loads of fun! They can play at being a grocer, prepare meals in a restaurant, hop inside a police car or an ambulance, and even find themselves at the controls of an airplane. With over 18 theme stations to explore, they’ll have ample opportunity to let their imaginations run free! And who knows, you might be invited to take on the part of being your child’s customer.
Discover

Centre National de Cyclisme de Bromont (CNCB)

Ready to get the whole family moving? Head to the Bromont National Cycling Centre for an off-the-beaten-path activity! The centre’s indoor velodrome offers the perfect opportunity to discover track cycling and try your hand at a new sport, whatever your age or ability. A sporting experience that might just spark a passion for cycling for both kids and adults!
Discover

La Piazzetta Granby

After two very busy days, nothing brings the family together like a great tasting pizza! Head to La Piazzetta in Granby to end your stay with a culinary treat. Invite your kids to choose their favourite dish, whether it’s pizza, pasta, or any other specialty offered. Gluten-sensitive? There’s a section on the menu just for you. While your meals are being prepared, take this time to look back on the highlights of your short getaway. And to accompany this last meal, enjoy a glass of wine or one of the restaurant’s signature cocktails. Indeed, the perfect moment to toast your adventure before returning home. Cheers!
