- Route

Heading East from Montreal

Distance: 83.2 Km / 51.9 Mi Duration: 05:14:11

Highway 20 is BORING. Take the smaller highways south if you have time. I took the 165-112-216 combination. Speed limit is 90 km/h, but you'll be passed if you aren't going at least 110 km/h. Highway 165 south is amazing. Hills, valleys and twisties. You'll be hard pressed to find a straightaway. Highway 216 was a bit bumpy in patches - you might actually get closer to 90 km/h there. But still hands down a better alternative than highway 20.

@Kman - yep, highway 165 between Plessisville and Thetford Mines was the best part, but it was all pretty decent. Crazy hills though... 11% inclines. Get ready for a workout!

Thanks for the detail on the route! Do you mean Hwy 165 between Plessisville and Thetford mines for twisties?
