The Saguenay Fjord drew my bike to it and opened its arms to me on its banks, welcoming me for three days in the heart of its moving landscapes.

Impossible to miss the vast Gatineau Park which, on the map of the Outaouais, expands like smoke from a campfire. By combining it with the cycle paths of la Route verte, I was drawn to its many trails, lakes, and stretches of forest that seemed to invite me personally.

The Eastern Townships offer all the options for cycling enthusiasts, from Sunday rides to tough challenges popular with amateur cyclists. I explore some of this great potential by riding on bike paths, gravel roads and even some pump track curves!

Autumn is upon us and with it are multiplying the opportunities for colorful getaways along quiet country roads. I offered myself, from the south or north, three loops in the Laurentians.

In a dense network of cycle paths, I visit an old fort, drink a festive cider, ride a lime-green hippopotamus and play the piano by the water's edge. Welcome to Montérégie!

The island of Montreal has nearly 1000 km of bike paths. Through large parks, over a few bridges and along the river and canals, I walked fifty.

I camp under one of the most beautiful skies in the world, I wash myself in a river and I learn the history of our border with the Americans, all embellished with the pleasant salty and fir scents of this superb region.

The tour of Quebec continues with a perfect route for the family, this time in Mauricie, a captivating region too often overlooked and located between the two largest cities in the province.

After the world tour… the tour of Quebec? Due to the global pandemic, I brought my clip-on shoes back home and set off to the four corners of La Belle Province in order to get to know our hinterland better. First stop: the capital.
