Transportation to the start

Last update : August 21, 2023

  • Your own transport

Those who can have their own transport can organize themselves accordingly (except for the 42 km Classic – shuttles are mandatory for this race), while considering that parking at the departure sites is not allowed for the day. 

  • Ride-Share/Carpooling

Use the Amigo Express page to share the trip to La Malbaie with other athletes! 

We have also created a Facebook page to facilitate ride-sharing between participants during the event (for example to get to some 125 km aid stations)

  • SHUTTLES TO THE STARTS 

You can complete the booking forms below between August 23 and 30. Be ready to make your choice. This form will allow us to better target the needs and thus ensure that the schedule is respected. First come, first served. We may have to close some shuttle departures that are full before August 30 since the number of buses and drivers in the Charlevoix region is limited.

  1. For runners arriving by vehicle: Go to the large parking lot in Clermont to take the shuttle (9 Rue de la Rivière, Clermont, QC G4A 1B5). * Shuttles from Mont Grand-Fonds are available for volunteers, workers and runners sleeping in their car in the Mont Grand-Fonds parking lot only.
  2. For runners staying at La Malbaie: Go to one of three boarding points offered at La Malbaie (map of the boarding points). We do not offer parking at these boarding points. You can walk, get a ride or drive and park on nearby streets where permitted by law.

3 boarding points at La Malbaie:

  • Auberge La Remontée (95 Côte Bellevue, La Malbaie G5A 3A7)
