    Sentiers du Moulin

Aménagée en 2015 par le groupe LB-Cycle en collaboration avec Patrice Dorion pour le volet mécanisé, cette descente d’environ 1 km, réservée aux experts, relie le sommet de la montagne à l’ancien camping près de l’accueil. Née de près de 400 heures de bénévolat, elle s’est rapidement imposée comme une ligne engagée et unique au Québec.

À l’été 2025, dix ans après son ouverture, la LB-Cycle a été entièrement réaménagée par les bénévoles de LB-Cycle. Des centaines d’heures de travail ont permis d’y ajouter de nouvelles sections sur dalle et enrochements, d’améliorer le flow, d’intégrer quelques sauts, une nouvelle ligne, un nouveau viaduc et plusieurs interventions visant à améliorer la durabilité du sentier. Ce réaménagement lui donne aujourd’hui une tendance légèrement plus freeride. Le projet a été mené par Alex Beaulieu et Guy-Charles Valois.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Built in 2015 by the LB-Cycle group in collaboration with Patrice Dorion for the machine-built work, this approximately 1 km descent, reserved for expert riders, connects the summit of the mountain to the former campground near the main lodge. Born from nearly 400 volunteer hours, it quickly established itself as a unique and committing line in Quebec.

In the summer of 2025, ten years after it first opened, LB-Cycle was completely rebuilt by LB-Cycle volunteers. Hundreds of hours of work went into adding new rock slab and rock-armored sections, improving the flow, integrating a few jumps, a new line, a new bridge, and several other interventions aimed at improving the trail’s long-term durability. This rebuild gives the trail a slightly more freeride-oriented character today. The project was led by Alex Beaulieu and Guy-Charles Valois.
