montreal roads

for those of us that live in the city and have to deal with sitting in traffic, sometimes need to go for a nice drive around the city, to enjoy our cars.

post up any roads that you enjoy

i'll start with a route that i also hit on my bicycle.
from:Start @45.51885728113613,-73.57183456420898 to:Voie Camillien-Houde @45.508565, -73.591109 to:Avenue Atwater @45.488720, -73.583810 to:45.519699,-73.546858 - Google Maps

Start on St Denis/des Pins, if u need gas, there is an esso on the corner.
head west to park and turn north on park, stay in the left lanes.
the road turns left and you make your way up the mountain.
there is a lookout or two and also beaver lake, but you can enjoy a couple of really nice corners. watch out for shitty roads at the base.
As you get to cote de nieges, head south and make your way onto docteur penfield.
turn south onto atwater and make your way onto the 720E. a quick dab of the throttle on the highway and you make your way into the two tunnels to enjoy your exhaust.

THE END

This is out of Montreal, but makes for a great drive ...
from: lachute, qc to: Route du Lac-Rond N - Google Maps

Chemin de la Rouge towards the end is really nice. Tiny little road next to a river, really cool.

You can also start from St Sauveur instead of Lachute and take either the 364 or Chemin de la Riviere Perdue. A bit of a traffic on weekends, but lots of curves.


In the eastern townships
from:Chemin Champlain/RTE-202 @45.122160, -73.068023 to:45.033744,-73.073502 to:RTE-139 @45.035707, -72.661587 to:Chemin de la Vallée-Missisquoi @45.030911, -72.426327 to:fulford, qc - Google Maps
Lac Brome is great if you drive there around sunset.

There are more roads to be explored going north, east of the 15, but I don't have any specific route ... it's all "whoa looks good here, let's make a left"

Accrho is an unknown quantity at this point
No it's not! But it's the nicest road I know in Quebec!

To be exact, I take the 50 at mirabel, then the 329 to go to Saint-Sauveur, then the 364 and the 327 and there you are in Tremblant

Takes about 2 hours without stopping if you drive relatively fast.
