After Jacques Cartier (1534), navigators from all over took this historical route, which saw the establishment of colonies on the banks of the St. Lawrence River. From Lotbinière to Saint-Roch-des-Aulnaies, the Navigators' Route follows Highway 132 and beckons you to go back in time and discover heritage treasures - seigniorial manors, mills, ancestral homes and fortifications, and to discover the islands that dot the St. Lawrence. Route length: 195 km (121 mi.). Visit the Web site for full details and a map of this route. Excerpt from the Chaudière-Appalaches tourist guide
