This tour takes us the length of the rugged scenic coast from Mont Joli to the towns of Gasp and Perc . We explore the beautiful estate gardens formerly belonging to the first president of the Canadian Pacific Railway. Offshore, seals, porpoises and whales abound.
Seabirds are also a major feature of the area.
Watch the hang-gliding activity around Mont St Pierre. But the awe-inspiring coastal seascapes continue to draw our attention. We'll take a ferry to the bird sanctuary of Bonaventure Island, visit the site of the first French explorer's landing in Canada, stay in an inn with a view of Perc Rock, and enjoy the fresh seafood. We'll cover the towns of Gasp and Perc and the surrounding areas. For distances cycled , see the Distances page.
