Route 349 runs north from Louiseville and Autoroute 40 directly into Saint-Alexis-des-Monts. The drive from the autoroute is about 30 minutes on a winding but paved two-lane road through farmland and forest. From Trois-Rivieres, take Autoroute 40 west to the Louiseville exit and then head north -- total drive time is about 50 minutes. From Shawinigan, Route 351 offers a more direct but narrower route through the hills. Larger rigs should stick to Route 349 from Louiseville since it has better sight lines and shoulders. Fuel up in Louiseville or Trois-Rivieres before heading north, as options in Saint-Alexis-des-Monts are limited to one or two small stations. Grocery selection in the village is basic, so do your major provisioning in Trois-Rivieres where you'll find all the big chains. Cell service in the village is adequate but drops off quickly once you head north into the Mastigouche reserve or toward the remote lakes.
