Irresistible!

Departing from Saint-Hyacinthe, this getaway takes you on a culinary journey. Don't miss the awakening of nature in spring or the fruits of summer in September, as you travel along the Richelieu River in the Patriotes region.

To taste: the region's gourmet treasures—apples, ciders, wines, cheeses, and maple products. In short, cycling pleasure in many forms in a rural setting close to charming towns. How can you resist such temptations?
