The Itinerary

The North Shore is wild Quebec in its purest expression. Route 138 links Baie-Comeau to Sept-Îles along the north bank of the St. Lawrence — a landscape of pink granite, deep forests and deserted bays.

The North Shore's salmon rivers are among the world's most renowned. Sept-Îles, with its archipelago of 7 islands, lively downtown and First Nations museum, deserves more than a drive-through.
