Route Verte 6 (Québec)

Part of Québec’s Route Verte network, this section of Route Verte 6 is a mostly dedicated cycleway with a lot of loose gravel and some smooth asphalt in the mix. Think greenway vibes with steady, rolling terrain rather than big climbs.

Roughly 90 km end to end, it adds up to around 600 m of elevation gain, so you’ll feel it, but it’s very rideable at a relaxed pace. Expect long gravel stretches, a few short wooden boardwalks or bridges, and plenty of quiet scenery.

Best with wider tires (35–40 mm or more) and a simple toolkit; the surface switches between gravel and pavement often. Bring water and snacks—services can be spaced out depending on where you hop on.

Rideable from late spring to fall for the nicest conditions. Great as a solid day ride or split into an easy overnight if you want to linger.
