A unique 10-km, intermediate-level cycling route from Saint-André-Avellin to Saint-Sixte. As you pedal along the gravel path, view works by talented artists participating in the Pierre qui roule (“rolling stone”) art and nature symposium. Stop at the two lookouts to admire the scenery, beautiful in every season, from the fresh greens of early summer to the dazzling colours of fall. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area. In winter, the trail is open for snowshoeing!
