The circuit is very simple. Just follow route 368 which surrounds the island for 67 km, with a few paths that cross it to shorten the journey if necessary. Just 15 km from Quebec City, the Île d’Orléans brings the traditional countryside to life. The poet Félix Leclerc had made it his refuge, his source of inspiration. He said: "The island is forty-two miles (67 km) of peaceful things and landscapes marked by the presence of the St. Lawrence River and its flats, a unique heritage and 350 years of history. With more than 130 tourist attractions, we can certainly say that the Île d’Orléans is fertile in favorites. Take the time to appreciate the landscapes, but especially to stop for gourmet breaks, to visit an art shop or have a tasting in a vineyard.
