Hitting the road in and around Coaticook, QC

This is the small city where I work this summer. Coaticook was founded in 1826. Pop: 9285. The city and the surroundings villages are known for their production of milk and dairy products. Sometimes, Coaticook is refered as the "city of milk". There is even a festival of milk there in the summer. The "Coaticook" ice-cream brand, famous in Quebec, originates from this city. The city is also known for its canyon (la gorge de Coaticook) and its pedestrian bridge.


Coaticook is here.



The other places showcased in this thread are highlited. Martinville and Huntingville are not on the map. Many pictures were taken on the road between those places.
