Sainte Adele to Saint Jerome
This was our last day on the trail. It started with an amazing breakfast at Close Rolland and then another sunny day starting at about 60 and quickly going to 70-75. This last part of the trail was gravel and mostly woods with views of the Riviere Du Nord which included some pretty large waterfalls and rapids. We stopped at two parks along the way.
In summary this is a very nice bike trail! 200km of which 150km is paved? The gravel sections are packed and pretty good with a road bike. Plenty of rest stops, areas to buy food, and bike shops along the way. This trail is well developed and they did it right.
The tour was setup through Cecile at Auberge Chez Ignus. We left our cars in St Jerome and then were bussed with our bikes to the Northern end of the trail. Luggage was moved along the route so it was easy to carry what we needed for the day on the trail.
Places we stayed:
Auberge Chez Ignace: Lake access (swimming), great food, hot tub, nice location and yard. Definitely would go there again.
Le 900 Tremblant: Not on the same level as the other two B&B's. Would try something different next time.
Gite Au Clos Rolland: 1900's era large house. Big rap around porch and nice yard with pool. Great food comparable to Auberge Chez Ignace. Breakfast on the last day included yogurt with granola and maple syrup, strawberry smoothie, egg souffle, watermelon, oranges, grapes. And probably something else I forgot!
