I find the maps on the website (La Route Verte) to be so so. I never realized how close North Hatley was to Quebec City until now. Thanks for the info.

We did it in 4 days. Riding 450 km mostly on cycling paths is awesome. We rode the route verte #5 from montreal to quebec with our fixed gear bikes on the first week of june. We did it in 4 days.

I wish it had been built when I went to school there. The bike path is much more relaxed than on-road. One petit correction, it is Bishop's University, with an apostrophe, in both french and english. Hi

Nice post on one of the sweetest bike-path rides in one of the nicest parts of Quebec.

I wish it had been built when I went to school there. The bike path is much more relaxed than on-road.

One petit correction, it is Bishop’s University, with an apostrophe, in both french and english.
