Presentation
Refuel at the Café du Couvent in Richmond. This stage features several good climbs, rewarded by views of the surrounding countryside and mountain ranges in the distance. You'll also cross the Chemin Grandmont, which is closed in winter, giving you a chance to practice your technical skills! When you arrive at the campsite, relax by the river!
For lunch, stock up in Richmond before you leave, or make a detour to Danville. The bike path between Sherbrooke and Windsor can sometimes be flooded by heavy rain. If this happens, take the south river route instead.
