A getaway between river and mountains
Charlevoix landscapes are among the most beautiful in Québec. Come and see for yourself during a four-day getaway that allows you to both take it easy… and go all out! While the routes are relatively short, they vary in difficulty. You will have definitely earned the breathtaking view of the St. Lawrence from Les Éboulements and are sure to appreciate the tourist attractions of Saint-Joseph-de-la-Rive, the laid-back lifestyle of Baie-Saint-Paul and the charms of Isle-aux-Coudres: 23 km of biking bliss!
Before your departure, as for our other formulas, we plan everything: transportation, accommodations, meals and, of course, our exclusive itineraries. Once at your destination, however, you have more freedom organizing your day.
The En liberté bike trip experience is designed for independent cyclists on the route. By opting for this formula, without a guide or relief vehicle, you will receive all the information you need to ensure that your trip goes smoothly, as well as the daily itineraries. The latter propose routes of interest around certain stopover cities, chosen for their offer of services and their accommodations. The En liberté formula - a different kind of adventure that still has the Vélo Québec Voyages touch.
Travelling En liberté means...
- Being able to choose your departure date and destination from our wide choice of itineraries
- Travelling as a couple, with family or friends
