  • Mont à Ligori

    The Mont Ligori gathers the Gabrielle-Roy trail and the Ancestrale trail during 15,4-km difficult level trail. From the start, the trail features a fairly steep climb followed by a path with lush vegetation. Upon arrival at the Liguori shelter, take in the unmatched view of the river!
