We return from our Chaudiére-Appalache bike ride road trip

We had the guidebook.

We had selected the rides.

We had gas in the car.

We had a weather forecast that denied the possibility of rain.

We were off to another road trip to the Chaudiére-Appalache region. This region is located south (and southeast and southwest) of Quebec city. It has both river- and sea-side landscape, and inland you have big river valley (the beauce), and inland hill country. Our visit this time was the hilly inland area. First we visited Thetford Mines (good but cool and windy) and the next day we visited the Veloroute de Bellechasse, which is a rails-to-trail bike path which exceeded out very high expectations.



Get this free guidebook. Then go explore the Chaudière-Appalaches region this summer. It's one of Québec's cycling paradises.
