Experience a cycling adventure on the Petit Train du Nord bike trip in Quebec’s Laurentian region. This 234 km multi-use trail offers everything cyclists dream about – picturesque countryside, mouthwatering local cuisine, charming towns, clear signage, and relatively easy cycling, especially when biking from north to south. Originally a railroad, the trail was transformed after the Quebec government purchased it from the Canadian Pacific Railway in 1994. During this four-day car-free riding experience, you’ll explore the majestic Laurentians. Daily mileage and van-supported options are suitable for cyclists of all levels. The trail winds through breathtaking forests, past serene lakes, charming villages and villages, and through scenic mountainous landscapes – although since trains used to navigate this route the maximum grade never exceeds 4%! We’ll even take a mid-trip break to discover the award-winning alpine town of Mont-Tremblant, with its walkable village filled with shops, restaurants, and exciting activities. While the trail’s primary surface is paved asphalt, approximately 30% of it consists of crushed limestone sections. Don’t worry—our fleet of road bikes, hybrids, and e-bikes can handle it all.
