Location
Trois-Rivières, Canada
Trois-Rivières Airport (IATA: YRQ, ICAO: CYRQ) is a small regional airport located in Trois-Rivières, Québec, Canada.

City & Place Guide

Historic St. Lawrence port city where French Canada's soul endures.

Trois-Rivières is one of the oldest cities in North America, founded in 1634 on the confluence of the St. Maurice and St. Lawrence rivers in Quebec, Canada. Its compact, walkable Old Town preserves centuries of French-Canadian heritage through stone buildings, cobblestone streets, and vibrant cultural institutions.

Despite its historical roots, the city buzzes with a lively arts scene, world-class motorsport events, and a thriving café and restaurant culture. It serves as an excellent and often overlooked stop between Montreal and Quebec City, offering an authentic Quebec experience without the tourist crowds.

  • •Vieux-Trois-Rivières — charming historic district with 17th-century architecture and riverside promenades.
  • •Musée québécois de culture populaire — engaging museum celebrating everyday Quebec life and history.
  • •Cathédrale de l'Assomption — striking Gothic Revival cathedral dominating the city skyline.
  • •Circuit Trois-Rivières — legendary street racing circuit hosting the NASCAR Pinty's Series.
  • •Sanctuaire Notre-Dame-du-Cap — beloved national Marian shrine set in peaceful riverside gardens.
  • •Forges du Saint-Maurice National Historic Site — ruins of Canada's first industrial ironworks dating to 1730.

Getting around: Trois-Rivières is best explored on foot in the Old Town, but the city's bus network (RTCR) covers wider areas affordably. Taxis and rideshare apps like Uber operate locally. No passenger rail serves the city directly, so a rental car is recommended for visiting outlying attractions like the Forges du Saint-Maurice.

Best time: Visit from late June through August for warm weather, outdoor festivals, and the Grand Prix de Trois-Rivières motorsport event.

Local food: Sample tourtière, poutine, fresh St. Lawrence sturgeon, and locally crafted microbrews at the city's many bistros and brasseries.
