| - Cycloparc PPJ is a rail trail located in the Pontiac Regional County Municipality in Quebec, Canada. The PPJ traverses 91.7 kilometres (57.0 mi) of hills and riverfront and enables hikers and cyclists to tour through points of interest such as Grand Calumet Island, the and Coulonge Chutes near Fort-Coulonge. Slopes on the trail do not exceed 4%. The surface of the trail is made from a combination of stone and dust. No motor vehicles or hunting is permitted on the PPJ. The trail is ideally suited for hikers and cyclists during the summer between May and October. There are numerous places to swim along the trail including the Ottawa River and nearby off-trail Fort William. There are 14 rest areas along the route. The trail originates at Kilometre 0 in Wyman and ends at Allumette Island (L'Îles-aux-Allumettes). Many rest areas, picnic spots and observation points are found along the length of the PPJ. The trail crosses the Félix-Gabriel-Marchand Bridge, the second longest operational covered bridge in Canada. The trail is named after the Pontiac Pacific Junction Railway (PPJ) because it occupies the rail bed of this defunct railway company. (en)

Le chemin de fer desservait les villages du Pontiac, d'Aylmer à Waltham, en passant par Quyon, Shawville, Campbell's Bay, Fort-Coulonge. Elle était connue sous l'acronyme PPJ que l'on nommait à la blague Push, Pull and Jerk. Elle a été la première compagnie canadienne à éclairer ses wagons avec des lampes à l'acétylène. (fr)
