 The Gaspé Peninsula covers 30,340,6 km2, and its population numbers 136,600 inhabitants. This area roughly corresponds to that of Belgium, which, however, has a population of 10 million souls. The Peninsula is bordered by the North by the St. Lawrence estuary, to the South by the Chaleur Bay and to the East by the Gulf of St. Lawrence. The Gaspé Peninsula begins in Sainte-Flavie, where Route 132 splits to form an itinerary loop of approximately 885 km. It is at this specific point that you must choose your route, either the South Tour or the North Tour. Whatever your decision may be, all through your journey you are sure to find the most diversified and picturesque sea and mountain landscapes, valleys, bays and coastlines. This vast territory, is divided into five natural areas: The Coast, The Haute-Gaspésie, Land's End, The Chaleur Bay and The Matapédia Valley.
