Grand-Saint-Esprit, a rural municipality, geographically presents the aspect of an elongated quadrilateral with two parallel sides. The double row is bordered by primarily single-family homes, farms, and a few businesses. The territory has developed beyond the South Shore of the Saint Lawrence River and is bordered by five parishes. The village’s infrastructure allows for various recreational activities: a playground, a community and crafts hall, croquet, cross-country skiing and snowshoeing trails, and hiking. These are likely significant assets that make this village a welcoming and restful place.
