Find a safe and pleasant place to stop for the night.
Sleeping in a van can seem daunting at first, especially when you don’t know where to settle in peace and quiet. Fortunately, with the right resources and a little experience, it gets a lot easier. We’re fortunate to have a very vanlife-friendly province, and this is often based on respect for the places where we sleep. Let’s use the tools at our disposal to do just that! We love Quebec itineraries and destinations, so here are three Quebec platforms to use to find your next sleeping spot.
Arrêts Nuitée VR
Arrêts Nuitée VR is a free, 100% Québec tool that provides access to hundreds of safe, officially authorized sites for self-propelled vans. The platform can also be used to locate wastewater discharge stations and tourist information establishments. A bit like Quebec’s iOverlander. We love it!
Why use Arrêts Nuitée VR :
- Free and no registration required
- Authorized and safe sites
- Information on dumping stations and tourist information points
Our tip: Check the platform regularly for new and/or updated locations!
