Guided Bike Ride along the St. Lawrence to Montmorency Falls with Echo Sports Tours

The ride follows a well-maintained bike path along the St. Lawrence River, about 9 miles each way, to Montmorency Falls, which are 272 feet (83 meters) high. The river stays alongside for most of the trip, and a short break at Domaine de Maizerets gives time for water or the toilets in a park that is pleasant to stop in. At the falls, a cable car ride is included, so nobody has to climb to the top. Up there a walk across the suspension bridge looks down over the falls and the lush valley. About an hour of free time is set aside at the site. Visitors can explore alone or stay with the guide, a professional who shares the history and geography of the area along the way. The tour starts at Echo Sports Tours, in the lower town of Quebec City. It suits passionate cyclists as well as anyone who wants a day of scenery with some riding in it.
