Gravel bike routes
Cycling is part of the region’s DNA.
In Brome-Missisquoi, a network of themed routes invites you to explore the best of the Eastern Townships: postcard landscapes, charming villages, vineyards, covered bridges, agritourism stops, and scenic bike paths. Ride through the valleys or head for the mountains, with options that can even take you to Vermont.

BROME-MISSIQUOI GRAVEL CYCLING ROUTES
A true favourite of host and journalist Yvan Martineau, a Bromont resident, this route is perfect for getting started with gravel biking: short, accessible, and genuinely fun to ride!
Downhills as surprising as the climbs, the Brome-Missisquoi backcountry reveals itself in all its pure, authentic beauty. We love discovering the region’s true nature, apples and vineyards included.
Exciting challenges and breathtaking views await on this route, taking you to discover the area’s hidden gems. You’re sure to fall in love with the McCullough roller-coaster hills, then the festive vibe in our villages during the warm season.
La traversée des Townships – 47 km
A route featuring some of the most spectacular views around, punctuated by ambitious climbs, all on quiet, low-traffic roads. Enjoy a true forest-bathing moment under the Stagecoach canopy, then treat yourself to a well-earned gourmet break on a terrace in Lac-Brome.
Inspired by the region’s flagship gravel-cycling event, this route pairs grand scenery with a steady string of challenges that sets the pace. We love pushing endurance a little further here… then rewarding ourselves with a well-earned pint at a local microbrewery at day’s end!
Inspired by acclaimed cyclist Lyne Bessette, this loop takes you along some of the region’s most beautiful dirt roads. We love it for its majestic scenery, changes of pace, terrain challenges, the peaceful quiet that settles in… and the wildlife you’ll often be lucky enough to spot along the way.
