Mauricie Park is a superb place for road cycling. The significant differences in altitude, the quality of the road and the views make this place a paradise for cyclists.
This 80km loop, which runs along rivers, fields and a few farms, offers a breathtaking view of Mont-Tremblant. It is the ideal place to get away from the more touristy and crowded places of the region.
The Nordet circuit is a real jewel of the region, attracting many cycling enthusiasts. Being removed from the center of Tremblant, most of the traffic comes from cyclists. Located halfway in the Hautes-Laurentides and halfway in the Lanaudière region, this hilly road can offer you the challenge you are looking for.
Since the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve is closed for a good part of the summer, here is an alternative that we really like at mappa. This course was “borrowed” from the Messorem cycling team, which organizes its monthly “fast rides” on this route. Although the distance of this route is quite long, the route is relatively flat and offers well-paved areas.
The Tour of Mount Royal (also called the “Camillien-Houde” climb, “La Montagne” or the “Pro-Tour”) is a cycling classic. This iconic place is home to majestic neighborhoods. Get ready to discover a magnificent urban green space, the best of all worlds.
Gatineau Park is the conservation park in the Capitale-Nationale region. Nicknamed the green lung of Outaouais, it extends over more than 361 square kilometers and is home to a rich and unique biodiversity. The trip from Ottawa to the park is an experience that will allow you to discover its natural beauty.
The route from Chelsea to Wakefield is popular with cyclists because of its natural beauty and physical challenge. It's a great way to discover the Outaouais region!
