SAGUENAY–LAC-SAINT-JEAN BIKE EXPERIENCE

A diversified circuit and personalized experiences ... for everyone!

Travelling along the Véloroute des Bleuets and the Véloroute du Fjord du Saguenay, the trails are divided into sections. Each of these sections connects municipalities between themselves, and are classified according to the category they are aiming at. Five different categories of clientele have been established: FAMILY/RECREATIONAL

The experience intended for family and recreational cyclists is composed of cycling trails and designated roadway sections with little to no elevation gain. Identified in green. TOURING CYCLIST

The experience intended for touring cyclists offers sections with paved shoulders with a minimal three-foot width (one metre) and hills with little change in elevation (moderate elevation gain). Identified in yellow. PERFORMANCE CYCLING

The experience is intended for performance cyclists and allows the cyclist to undertake the circuit’s most challenging sections. One can expect paved shoulders and hills with risk of high changes in elevation. Identified in red. MOUNTAIN BIKE

The experience aiming at mountain bike users proposes several different centres where you can find more then 300 km of trails, with varying levels of difficulty. FATBIKE

The experience aiming at fatbike users proposes 140 km of trails maintained and marked for a secure experience in surroundings catered to beginners as well as experienced bikers.

When a section of the circuit is composed of one or more different roadway surfaces (bicycle trail, paved shoulder or designated shared roadway), it will be identified by the colour implying the closest proximity to automobile traffic.

THE LAKE, ITS BEACHES AND BLUEBERRIES Fun that stretches for kilometres on end !

maps 1-17 The Véloroute des Bleuets circuit encircles Lac Saint-Jean for 256 kilometres, crossing 15 municipalities and the Montagnais community of Mashteuiatsh. The Parc national de la Pointe-Taillon and picturesque municipalities located along the country roads can be reached from this loop. It connects many points of interest, overlooking Lac SaintJean’s tributary rivers, besides a connection to Saguenay through an associate network. The circuit offers multiple occasions for dining, camping, hotel and bed & breakfast stays.

Lac Saint-Jean is so immense that the opposite banks are only visible when the skies are exceptionally clear. With a surface area of over 1000 km2 and besides being the largest inhabited lake in the province, it’s classified among the 10 largest lakes in Québec. Lac Saint-Jean offers a multitude of monumental landscapes due to the banks that stretch along 210 km. A genuine seaside resort, Lac Saint-Jean invites you to swim in its warm waters and relax in the sun on the luxurious sandy beaches.

PRÉSENTATION CARTES VÉLOROUTE BLEUETS

The Véloroute des Bleuets is a member of Association des Réseaux Cyclables du Québec.
