Route 197 is a short 19 km two-lane highway which cuts through the Appalachian Mountains in the municipality of Gaspé, Quebec, Canada. Its only function is to act as a shortcut to Route 132 which goes around the Forillon peninsula which makes up Forillon National Park. It starts at the junction of Route 132 in Rivière-au-Renard (part of the municipality of Gaspé) and ends again at the junction of Route 132 in Saint-Majorique, part of Gaspé as well.
