A Trail of
Tranquility

Quebec Bike Ride
June 12-17, 2026

Tour Highlights

History, nature, and charming Quebecois culture come together for this unforgettable 5-day cycling tour along the legendary P’tit Train du Nord trail. Covering approximately 400 km round-trip, this ride takes you deep into the heart of the Laurentians—from Saint-Jérôme to Mont-Laurier, with scenic stops in Mont-Tremblant and Lac Nominingue.

Originally a railway line, the P’tit Train du Nord has been transformed into one of North America’s most celebrated bike trails. Cyclists will enjoy a mix of paved paths and gentle gravel (rock dust), winding through forests, riversides, and picturesque villages. Each day offers new landscapes—from mountain vistas to tranquil lakeshores—and plenty of opportunities to explore local cafés, heritage stations, and artisan shops.

Highlights include:

  • Starting and ending at the historic Saint-Jérôme train station
  • A stop in Mont-Tremblant, known for its vibrant resort village and mountain views
  • A peaceful overnight at Lac Nominingue, perfect for a swim or lakeside picnic
  • A ride through lush forests and rolling hills, with gentle climbs and rewarding descents
  • Following the original railway corridor, rich in regional history and charm

Whether you’re a seasoned cyclist or simply seeking a meaningful challenge, this tour blends physical adventure with the serene beauty of Quebec’s backcountry. It’s more than a ride—it’s a journey through time, nature, and community.
