Promenade des Gouverneurs runs along the Citadel and leads to Battlefields Park, also known as the Plains of Abraham.

Named in honor of Governor General Lord Dufferin, it forms an extension of Dufferin Terrace in front of the Château Frontenac.

Avid walkers of all stripes as well as amateur photographers seeking striking pictures of the river and surrounding area won’t be off by the many stairs along this multi-level walkway; the unforgettable panoramas they experience along the way are ample reward for all the effort.
