Itinerary description

Show original
A very interesting course

This new bike link totals almost 15 kilometers, more than half of which is in its own right and the other part in a shared causeway.

Concretely, it borrows, for nearly half of its course (7.8 kilometers), the Harlaka railway right of way from the southern limit of the Pintendre sector to the Saint-Hélène road. For the other part (7 kilometers), it uses the Saint-Hélène road, the Saint-Roch road, the Lallemand road and the Martinière park, to finally join the Parcours des Anses. On this tour, there is another of utilitarian nature, which borrows in particular the old route Harlaka, the path of Forts and the streets of Lilacs, Caron and Pheasants to the course of Anses.

The route Harlaka joins the Cycloroute de Bellechasse at the edge of the Pintendre sector and the municipality of Saint-Henri. Saint-Henri is located at the western end of the trail. The village heart is full of services, especially on Principale Street.
