St Jovite to St Gabrielle-de-Brandon

We drove to St Donat and stopped for lunch and  5.3 klm hike . 
This area is perfect recreational space. Rugged , dotted with lakes every where. 





The hiking trail is a cross country ski trail in the winter


Toured around this little town for a bit, not much to do so we moved on. 



We had planned to camp at the town beach in St. Gabriel de brandon but when we arrived they told us that due to the Covid we were not allowed to stay overnight.  The city employee at the beach recommended a place to stay at a retail store in town so we moved there. Good spot. 

As we drove from St Donat the terrain changed to rolling farm land. Big dairy operations and lots of poultry farms

Visited Mont Tremblant Resort

The resort was very quiet. A few people around but certainly not normal.


The casino. They didn't get any of my money




We rode the  cabriolet ( gondola ) to the base of the hill.



View of a hotel swimming pool from the gondola


 For $22.50 you can rent a luge and take it up the gondola to the top of the hill and ride it down a plastic luge track.  Looked like a lot of fun.

On the road again We will be touring from Mont-Tremblant to east of Quebec city , not sure how far we will get






Stopped in a nice little park in Amer and then walked down town , not much to see , but a beautiful day for walking

Stopped for lunch in a little park in town and them walked down town. Not much to see but a nice day for a walk

Stopped in Brebeuf on the main corner n town for about an hour. More antique and flea market stuff. 




We walked  along a bicycle path for a while. As when we were in Granby the bicycle trails are out standing. Paved with a center line, and repair stations at all of the main intersections with air, tools and a rack to hold  your bike while you are working on it.


Spent the night at the recreational center. Perfect spot. Quiet and out of the way. Once the sports finished around 10 pm. we had the whole area to ourselves.
