What's this trip about?

    This fabulous four-day weekend bike trip begins on the shores of Lake Champlain in Burlington, Vermont and continues north to Montréal, where it concludes with the famed Tour de L’Île — a 35-mile ride on a cordoned-off route through the streets of Montréal. The trip follows the Island Line Trail north from Burlington to the Lake Champlain Islands. This former rail line is a (mostly) paved trail that follows the Lake Champlain shoreline north to a bike ferry that carries cyclists across a narrow gap in the trail to the Islands. Take a rest at Vermont’s first vineyard and winery for a picnic lunch hosted by your tour leaders. Later enjoy an opening reception and dinner overlooking Lake Champlain to kick off the fun at the conclusion of the first day’s ride.

Travel Map

Day 1:

Ride north out of Burlington on the Island Line Trail. This former rail trail enables cyclists to follow the shore of Lake Champlain then cross to the Lake Champlain Islands via a bike ferry. After settling into your room at Shore Acres Inn, enjoy a swim in the lake or visit the tiny village of North Hero.

Day 2:

Cross the border into Canada. The Richelieu River, which flows north out of Lake Champlain on its way to rendezvous with the St-Lawrence, is never far from your route to the town of St-Jean-sur-Richelieu. Break for lunch at a beautiful Île-aux-Noix along the Richelieu River. Following lunch, ride north to Saint-Jeansur-sur-Richelieu and your lodging at Auberge Harris.

Day 3:

Today’s ride follows the Path du Canal-de-Chambly north to the charming village of Chambly along an intricate series of locks. The locks enable boats to avoid the unnavigable rapids of the Richelieu River as they pass between Lake Champlain and the Saint Lawrence Seaw...

Day 4:

This morning, join your fellow tour participants and 15,000 others for the Tour de L’Île. This annual ride is a festive event that follows different routes through the Montréal on streets closed to vehicular traffic for this event. The route is often lined with bystan...
