Road bike tour - Bucolic discovery
This circuit of just over 50km starts in Saint-Paul-de-l'Île-aux-Noix. The Refuge de l'Île-Port de Plaisance is a place where everyone can relax and enjoy themselves. There's a picnic area, barbecues, a sand court, beach volleyball, two river access points and much more to get you off to a great start.
Then it's off to Saint-Valentine's via bucolic roads and lanes that make you feel a world away from the city. Here, we take the time to breathe and enjoy the great outdoors.
It's a route full of horizon, where fields and ancestral houses await you with charm. The final loop of the route, in the municipality of Lacolle, is steeped in history and ties with our American neighbors, and offers an interesting historical journey to discover.
