The Véloroute des Bleuets is a cycling path that loops around the Lac St-Jean, passing through 16 villages and small cities. The path is mostly asphalt, sometimes on the shoulder of the road, sometimes going through the woods, sometimes alongside the road with a median strip. There's a 20km going through the provincial park SEPAQ Pointe-Taillon, a flat non-technical dirt road. This is the only section non-accessible by vehicule, if you're going supported. On the Véloroute des Bleuets website, there's options for ferries that make the route shorter. This route does not goes through the ferry, since they're not operating 24/7 all year long.
The route is breathtaking and peacefull at the same time, taking you through the beautifull countryside. People from Lac St-Jean are the kindest you'll ever encounter. They're fondly called "Bleuet", meaning blueberry, because of the big wildfire of 1870, burning 3 800km², that let place for the growth of wild blueberry all over the region. Many people ride the Véloroute des Bleuets each year. Very few run it.
