The Itinerary
Berthierville is the birthplace of Gilles Villeneuve, the legendary Formula 1 driver. The Musée Gilles-Villeneuve preserves his original cars and traces his blazing career.
The town is also the access point for the Berthier-Sorel archipelago — a hundred islands in the middle of the St. Lawrence explored by boat. The ferry to Île Dupas and Île Saint-Ignace opens up near-deserted river landscapes.
