We decided to stay in Gaspe one more day to do some bike riding. It’s a lovely day. We headed out from the marina on a very nice bike trail that runs along the south shore of Gaspe Bay toward the hamlet of Haldimand. We went about 20 km, turning around at the salmon river called Riviere Saint-Jean. The bike path was terrific as you can see here.

This big sign makes it very clear that this paved path is for bicycles and NOTHING else. Sorry dogs!

Running along the bike path is this old railroad line. We were told the town has plans to fix it up and bring back old style passenger trains for tourists to go between Gaspe and Perce, a tourist town nearby that we will pass tomorrow…with the famous hole in the rock.
