The drive

Route 371 is a country two-lane north of Quebec City, driven here from Val-Bélair, at Autoroute 573, to Stoneham. Québec City's tourism office describes the ride as technical curves, climbs and descents through farmland, with the Tewkesbury church and the Jacques-Cartier River along the way.

The road passes Valcartier and the Chemin Redmond stretch before Tewkesbury, then ends at Stoneham. It is 22.9 miles and takes about 45 minutes, and the curves are mostly gentle. The tourism office suggests adding Shannon and Lac-Saint-Joseph if you want a longer day.
