Here, we pedal

Marvel at the migration of snow geese and barnacles along the Haut-Richelieu bike paths. With over 250 km of cycling routes, Haut-Richelieu is one of the largest cycling networks in the Montérégie region.

Start your escapade in Old Saint-Jean by taking the Chambly canal multi-purpose trail. This magnificent trail follows the Richelieu River for 20 km. Along the way, stop at the Langelier mills and enjoy the scenery unfolding before you!

On your return, grab a bite to eat in Old Saint John and enjoy Parc des Éclusiers, Place Publique or Place du Quai. Decked out in autumn colors, these spaces are a perfect blend of urban and natural. Looking to warm up? Drop by Autour de la table or atchocolaterie Treize Chocolats for a cup of hot coffee or hot chocolate.

Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu offers a variety of accommodations for cyclists. So you can continue your cycling escapade for a second day. This time, take La Montérégiade. In autumn, discover the fields where migratory birds nest. It's a sight not to be missed! Follow us on Facebook to find out when birds arrive in the region!

You can also take the Vallée-des-Forts bicycle path, the Route Verte, or stroll through the Venise-en-Québec peat bog at the Parc et sentier de la nature.
