So, here we are, it’s May 2025 and we’re heading out on our first van adventure of the year. Our destination, Labelle, QC. Specifically, the Camping Chutes aux Iroquois campground where we will be staying for four nights.
We headed through Ottawa, ON and into Gatineau, QC before heading East on Autoroute 50 towards Montebello and then turning Northwards on Rt 323 towards Mont Tremblant. Once reaching Mont Tremblant we turned Northwards onto Autoroute 117 for 15 min and arrived in Labelle, QC. The drive was wonderful and relaxing with the trees showing their early Spring colours as the leaves strain to open in the warm Spring air.
Arriving at the campground we entered using the key code that had been provided and drove directly to our site bypassing the registration office. Our grassy site, C5, is next to the Rivière Rouge and has a great view of the waterfall. The ground was a little uneven and it took a few attempts to level the van tour satisfaction.
After setting up we relaxed at camp for the afternoon before enjoying chicken wraps for dinner whilst discussing our plans for the next day. Early to bed as tomorrow is all about cycling.
