An opportunity to celebrate cycling and Quebec terroir

Inaugurated in 2022, the Véloroute Gourmande is a cycling route linking Montreal and Sherbrooke, showcasing the many gourmet attractions within 5 kilometers of the route. There are no fewer than 120 of them! This five-day tour is the perfect opportunity to discover the Montérégie and Eastern Townships regions by bike, on bucolic, car-free roads, with plenty of opportunities for gourmet stops.

Before exploring it, we'd like to offer you an original formula: two days in Montreal to experience the excitement of the Tour de l'Île de Montréal, which welcomes tens of thousands of cyclists every year on a car-free route!

Ride through picturesque landscapes, between lakes and hills, stopping at local producers to taste the best of the local terroir. Relatively flat, the itinerary is accessible to all types of cyclists, and its 235 kilometers divide perfectly into four days of cycling to let you enjoy both the route and the many stops along the way.

If you've only got a few days to discover Quebec's gastronomic riches, this is the perfect way to do it!
