Cap Beauséjour

Cap Beauséjour sits at 1,493 feet along the Route des Belles-Histoires, facing 210 degrees, with the land dropping 377 feet within 600 meters of the overlook. The view opens across a mix of water and hills to the south and west. Lac Légaré lies west-southwest at 0.7 miles, with Lac Byette farther off to the south-southwest at 1.5 miles. Several hills and peaks line the southern horizon: Colline Cross at 1.5 miles, Colline Belisle at 2.2 miles, Mont Iroquois at 2.8 miles, and Colline aux Framboises at 3.0 miles, all roughly south. Mont Sainte-Agathe appears to the southwest at 3.1 miles, at 1,772 feet elevation, the farthest point noted in view. Sunrise and sunset times vary by season, with the sun rising as early as 05:07 at the June solstice and as late as 07:37 at the December solstice, while sunset ranges from 16:15 in December to 20:52 in June. Cap à l'Aigle precedes this stop on the byway, and Belvédère Mariette-Dubreuil follows it.
