International Appalachian Trail, Long-distance hiking trail in Gaspésie, Canada

The International Appalachian Trail extends over 650 kilometers through Quebec's mountains, forests, and coastal regions from Matapédia to Cap-Gaspé.

Joseph E. Brennan proposed connecting Quebec, New Brunswick, and Maine's Appalachian regions through a continuous trail system in 1994.

The trail's first publication, L'Oréade, launched in 1997 from Matane, takes its name from Greek mountain deities.

The path features multiple camping areas, shelters, and water points, allowing hikers to complete the journey in 35 to 40 days.

The trail network connects geological formations that were united 250 million years ago during the Pangaea period.
