Have you succumbed to the lure of gravel cycling? The Centre-du-Québec region is full of roads to travel and places to explore for the pleasure of the senses. Not only will you be able to enjoy the beauty of the landscape through fields and forests, but you will want to discover the gourmet specialties that are the pride of the Bois-Francs region: wines, cheeses - the best! -, microbrewery beers, honey and maple products.
Finally, an important collection of works by Canadian artists awaits culture lovers at the museum dedicated to Sir Wilfrid Laurier, in his impressive Victorian home in Victoriaville. All this on gravel roads that will give you the impression of exploring a different Quebec, between nature and heritage!
