The first route to be featured in our tourist route network, Véloroute Gourmande connects Montréal and Sherbrooke and offers a cycling tour through the heart of Montérégie and the Eastern Townships.
Thanks to the Vélo-Transit bike lockers installed at different locations along the route, cyclists can securely store their bike while they enjoy a tasting at a winery or cidery, have a meal at a local restaurant, visit a farmers' market, or spend the night at an inn along the way.

TOURISM ORGANIZATIONS
Make your route a more bike-friendly destination.
A good cycling route isn't just about the journey itself. It's also about the stops along the way, the sights to see, the shops, the activities, and the moments when cyclists can take their time.
By adding bike stations in strategic locations, you make it easier for cyclists to take breaks, encourage them to visit the area, and give them a reason to stay longer.
Your route also benefits from direct exposure to thousands of cyclists already active on the Vélo-Transit network—a community that is well-informed, aware of cycling as a mode of transportation, and looking for new destinations.
