Four Scenic Bike Stops in the Eastern Townships

Since we’ll have to wait before going cycling in exotic countries, we present to you 4 exotic stops to make right here at home, on your bike, in the Eastern Townships. It just goes to show that you don’t have to go very far to feel elsewhere!

The ideal starting point for any cycling trip in the region is the Espace 4 Saisons hotel complex, which is certified “Bienvenue cyclistes”. We’ve thought of everything to make your bicycle trip a success: individual bike lockers, bike repair kits and tire pumps are always available at the front desk… So, drop off your luggage in the heart of Orford, hop on your bike and go on an adventure!

For a day of relaxation, pedal to Bleu Lavande’s new lavender farm in Magog to have a picnic surrounded by the fragrant purple flowers. Offer yourself a leg-foot massage (ideal for cyclists!) and even bring home a small lavender plant.
