57 KM presented by Altra
Saturday august 27th
The heart of the Vallée Bras du Nord is considered one of the most technical courses in Canada and quite simply the most beautiful trail course in Quebec! Access to the mountain bike trails for which the valley is renowned will take you all around the Neilson, Grande Ourse, Boréal and many others. The transits between ridges and valleys are strewn with magnificent viewpoints; roots, rocks, mud, streams, dominated by the Delaney falls which reign over the course.
When you arrive at the Shanahan site, you will have to go to the canoe landing near the Sainte-Anne River and then cross the pedestrian bridge from where the departure will be given.
**IMPORTANT: Plan to arrive 15 minutes before the bib pickup closes.
