Why attend here

In early October, the Laurentians are a painter's palette of gold and crimson, and this rail-trail marathon lets you soak it all in from a smooth, tree-lined path. After you cross the finish line in Saint-Jérôme, reward yourself with a hearty poutine and a local craft beer, a perfect taste of Quebec's autumn comfort.

Course

The route follows the P'tit Train du Nord linear park, a converted rail bed that is hard-packed gravel with short asphalt sections. It is smooth, wide, and shaded by Laurentian forest for most of its length - closer to a fast cinder track than a technical mountain trail.
