Cycling routes

Head to downtown Gatineau for an urban bike ride! Take the Sentier des Voyageurs pathway along the Ottawa River shoreline. Play tourist by bike: visit the city’s many nearby attractions, and stop for a meal in the lively Old Hull neighbourhood!

Cycling in the Petite Nation means discovering a rich historical heritage along the Ottawa River and meeting a diverse community of gourmet producers. On your bike, cycle through charming historic villages, and escape to beautiful rural settings for an energizing ride!

Loop 3: The current conditions on Loop 3 are no longer optimal for cyclists. We recommend avoiding this section for now.

Combine cycling and breathtaking scenery as you ride the Véloroute des Draveurs! Along the way, admire the crystal-clear water of Blue Sea Lake. Pedal through the Vallée-de-la-Gatineau on a dedicated bike route, and explore this territory much loved by outdoor enthusiasts!

With kilometres of trails to cover and fields as far as the eye can see, the Pontiac offers cyclists the best of both worlds! Your ride will take you through lush natural surroundings and to sites steeped in history and culture. Gourmet stops along the way will whet your appetite!

If you’re looking for a challenge, this is the route for you! Located in the heart of the city, Gatineau Park is a green paradise, an almost boundless playground for sports enthusiasts of all kinds. Big bonus: just outside the park is the village of Chelsea, with its many restaurants and attractions!
