| The Thetford Mines region is asbestos country. In 1876, the mining industry shaped the way of life and the unique appearance of this area. You'll be astounded by the mining landscapes with their craters and pyramids erected by the miners. The region is one of contrasts: mining sites, lakes, forests, urban settlements and villages coexist in peaceful harmony. Route length: 165 km (102 mi.). Visit the Web site for full details and a map of this route. Excerpt from the Chaudière-Appalaches tourist guide |
