The Jacques-Cartier River Bridge is a former railway bridge near Shannon that crosses high above the Jacques-Cartier River, originally serving the rail line between Québec City and Lac-Saint-Jean. It now carries Vélopiste Jacques-Cartier / Portneuf users across the steep, forested valley, with beautiful views over the river corridor below, and is one of the more recognizable remains of the region’s railway history.
