Route 132 serves as your primary access route into Bonaventure, forming part of the famous Gaspé Peninsula coastal loop that RVers travel clockwise or counterclockwise around the region. This two-lane highway handles RVs of all sizes comfortably, though summer traffic can create delays during peak tourist season from July through early September.

The highway features several scenic pullouts and rest areas along the coastal sections, but overnight parking isn't permitted at these locations. Walmart doesn't operate stores in this rural region, so plan your overnight stops around established campgrounds or RV parks that welcome travelers.

Winter travel requires extra caution as coastal winds can create challenging driving conditions, and some services may operate on reduced schedules. The Route 132 receives regular maintenance and snow removal, but always check current road conditions before traveling during November through March.

Fuel stops are available in town, though prices typically run higher than urban Quebec areas due to the remote location. Stock up on propane and supplies before heading to more isolated sections of the peninsula.

Explore the Bonaventure Area

Hit the dump station early morning or late afternoon to avoid the rush of RVers checking in and out of local campgrounds. Camping Cime Aventure's facility includes a rinse hose, which isn't guaranteed at every dump station you'll encounter along the peninsula route.

Fresh water fill-ups are available at the same location as the dump station, making it convenient to handle both tasks simultaneously. Bring your own hose and fittings since not all stations provide them, and pack rubber gloves for sanitary handling.

Propane refills can be arranged in town, though call ahead to confirm availability and hours. Local mechanics familiar with RV systems operate seasonal shops, but don't count on finding parts for less common RV brands.
