The Lac-Brome Path is an 11.15 km linear route linking Knowlton\u2019s historic downtown area to the Foster sector.

A 74 km excursion (out and back); perfect for families that love to take on a challenge!<\/p>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">With children, we particularly recommend the section between Douglass Beach and Waterloo\u2019s municipal beach. This bicycle outing, accessible to cyclists of all levels, offers a well-deserved reward at the end of the route: refreshing water games, play modules for the little ones and shaded picnic areas. Although swimming is prohibited in Lake Waterloo, boat rentals are available for those wishing to explore the waterway.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\"><em>A tip from a pro: Plan to bring a picnic lunch and a change of clothing for your young ones who\u2019ll certainly want to try the water games!<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">Your four-legged friends are welcome everywhere on the trail (on a leash, of course!), and information panels can be found throughout the path to guide you all along your nature adventure.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-17303 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/tourismebrome-missisquoi.ca\/app\/uploads\/2025\/04\/sentier-lac-brome-1024x255.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"255\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tourismebrome-missisquoi.ca\/app\/uploads\/2025\/04\/sentier-lac-brome-1024x255.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/tourismebrome-missisquoi.ca\/app\/uploads\/2025\/04\/sentier-lac-brome-300x75.jpg 300w, https:\/\/tourismebrome-missisquoi.ca\/app\/uploads\/2025\/04\/sentier-lac-brome-768x191.jpg 768w, https:\/\/tourismebrome-missisquoi.ca\/app\/uploads\/2025\/04\/sentier-lac-brome-800x199.jpg 800w, https:\/\/tourismebrome-missisquoi.ca\/app\/uploads\/2025\/04\/sentier-lac-brome-1000x249.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/tourismebrome-missisquoi.ca\/app\/uploads\/2025\/04\/sentier-lac-brome-500x125.jpg 500w, https:\/\/tourismebrome-missisquoi.ca\/app\/uploads\/2025\/04\/sentier-lac-brome.jpg 1204w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"text-xl font-bold text-text-100 mt-1 -mb-0.5\">La Knowlton Co: Relaxation and Friendly Ambiance<\/h2>\n<p class=\"whitespace-pre-wrap break-words\">You\u2019ll find the ideal way to end your busy day by discovering La Knowlton Co!
