Set out on a 65-kilometer escape into the heart of a region where physical exertion blends with breathtaking landscapes. Amid the Laurentian forests, farmland, and villages west of Shawinigan, every kilometer reveals a new setting.

The route runs alongside a tiny fraction of the region’s 17,500 lakes, through vast, tranquil spaces perfect for a change of scenery. On a hot day, a stop at Lake Bell for a refreshing swim is definitely worth the detour.

A cycling getaway that invites you to breathe deeply, unwind, and fully savor the beauty of the region.
