4 Day Tour with shuttle and hotels

Day 1: Shuttle transfer from Alma to Saint-Henri-de-Taillon - Cycling to Dolbeau-Mistassini (71 km)

For your first day, a shuttle will take you from our agency in Alma to Saint-Henri-de-Taillon, where you will begin your bike journey exploring Pointe-Taillon National Park. Take the time to rejuvenate by contemplating the fauna and flora. Pause once or twice along the way to enjoy the magnificent beaches of Lake Saint-Jean, and perhaps even take a dip. Afterwards, head towards the municipality of Dolbeau-Mistassini, where you will stay in a motel.

Day 2: Dolbeau-Mistassini to Saint-Félicien (60 km)

Pedal towards Saint-Félicien, where the Véloroute des Bleuets will follow along the majestic lake Saint-Jean. You will have the opportunity to visit the renowned Zoo sauvage de Saint-Félicien if you wish. Don't miss the local flavors at the Bouchard Artisan Bio artisanal cheese factory and at the La Chouape microbrewery before heading to your hotel.

Day 3: Saint-Félicien to Chambord (50 km)

Heading towards Chambord, explore the various agricultural landscapes, featuring both cereals and small fruits, along with local flavors at Délices du Lac-Saint-Jean in Albanel and the Museum of the Old Perron Cheese Factory in Saint-Prime. Pass through the Historic Village of Val-Jalbert, where time seems to have frozen in the 1920s. You will have the option to spend the night there or choose a motel.

Day 4: Chambord to Alma (50 km)

Begin your last day by following the shores of Métabetchouan. The good news is that you will be descending, so take advantage of the gravity-assisted ride to relax and appreciate the landscapes, as well as the weather if it's mild. Make as many stops as necessary to savor the good moments and enjoy the beaches to refresh yourself. Make a tasting stop at the Lac-Saint-Jean microbrewery and at the Médard cheese-bakery in Saint-Gédéon. To complete the tour around the lake, return to your starting point: our agency in Alma.
