Welcome to the Chemin des Glaciers hiking route! This super easy 1.376-kilometer out-and-back trail offers a leisurely walk through beautiful surroundings.

Starting at Parking de la Gare, you'll find yourself surrounded by lush greenery. As you walk along the trail, you'll come across several shelters where you can take a break and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere. These shelters are located at various points along the trail, with some closer to the beginning and others further away.

About midway through the hike, you'll pass by a couple of restaurants and a pub where you can grab a bite to eat or a refreshing drink. Don't forget to stay hydrated by refilling your water bottle at the drinking water station located at a distance from the trail.

For those interested in history, make sure to stop by Notre-Dame des grands Bois, a wayside shrine located near the trail. Information points scattered along the route provide insight into the area's cultural and natural heritage.

As you near the end of the trail, you'll find a parking area for those driving to the starting point. Le Rencard and La P’tite Verte restaurants are conveniently located here for a post-hike meal.

While this hike is super easy, it's always a good idea to bring water, wear comfortable shoes, and check the weather forecast before heading out. Enjoy your time on the Chemin des Glaciers trail!
