Gaspé Peninsula Loop Self-Drive
Drive along Route 132 around the peninsula, visiting Bic, the Chic-Choc Mountains, Forillon, and Percé.
Following the popular counter-clockwise route, you will explore the north shore first and then the south shore. Spend two nights each in the national park, Forillon, and Percé, leaving plenty of time for hiking, whale watching, and visiting the northern gannet colony. Return via the Matapédia Valley to cut back to the estuary. Although the total distance is long, most daily drives are under 300 km, making it ideal for road trippers who love coastal scenery and hiking. Quebec City serves as the starting and ending point, and this route can easily be connected to a rail trip.
The Mont-Jacques-Cartier trail is open from July 1 to September 30; Forillon and Bonaventure Island close around mid-October.
