Gatineau Park is the conservation park in the Capitale-Nationale region. Nicknamed the green lung of the Outaouais, it extends over more than 361 square kilometers and is home to a rich and unique biodiversity. It's a true cycling classic in Quebec. Every passionate cyclist should go there at least once in a lifetime. With its loop of about thirty kilometers and its climbs of more than 700m, this itinerary is nothing like a leisurely stroll. By going counterclockwise, the Fortune Lake Promenade offers you a long ascent of about 4 km!

Gatineau Park has several small cafes that can certainly be used to fuel up! Just choose which one:

  • Café Les Saisons is a charming place located in the heart of the historic district of Old Hull. It offers a varied menu for breakfast, lunch and brunches and the atmosphere is warm and friendly.
  • Biscotti & cie coffee Adds to the bucolic landscape of Old Chelsea the touch of gluttony that it lacked. With its homemade products, exquisite desserts and unique meals, Biscotti & cie is a delight for the eyes and the taste buds.
  • The Chealsea Pub. Whether you are a beer lover or looking to discover new flavors, you will certainly find something to your liking.
  • The Stop par excellence is the Champlain Belvedere located at the top of the mountain. The view is simply magnificent, enjoy it!

    Otherwise, a little further along the route, it is possible to stop at Pink Lake Lookout. This place offers a panoramic view of the whole lake. Pink.

    The walks are only accessible to cyclists and pedestrians on the following days:

    • Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday: All Day
    • Wednesday: Up to 8 am
    • Saturday and Sunday: Until Noon*

    *On Saturdays and Sundays, from May 20 to August 27, the shuttle runs on part of the walks from 9 am.

    This component will only work on the published/exported site. Full documentation in Finsweet's Attributes docs.
