The Soulanges cycle path is without a doubt the best way to discover the Soulanges canal and its varied landscapes.
The Soulanges cycle path is without a doubt the best way to discover the Soulanges canal and its varied landscapes.
Piste cyclable Soulanges
The Soulanges cycle path goes along the canal on its first 23.5 km (from Pointe-des-Cascades to Les Coteaux) and then continues in the Saint-Zotique and Rivière-Beaudette towns, for a total of 35 km of asphalt road.
You’ll find along the way many halts with bicycle repair stations, sanitation facilities, furniture for you to relax and well-present signage to easily orient yourself.

Updates and notices
The Soulanges officially began its 2022 season on May 1st. Track have now been cleaned and the sanitary facilities are accessible.
If you notice a problem, call us or text us at 438 405-2300.
Looking forward to meeting you on the trail!
The cycle path on the Coteau-1, 2 and 3 dams will remain closed until further notice for the end of the structural works. However, an alternate route on the Monseigneur-Langlois bridge is now open for the summer season. Access the dyke by the Chemin du Fleuve and take the crossing towards the Monseigneur-Langlois bridge .
The second phase of paving work is confirmed for next weekend, May 28 and 29. As was the case for the first phase of the work on May 19 and 20, the section between the purple arrow and the orange arrow on the map below will be inaccessible. There will therefore be no river shuttle service this weekend.
