Route description

Route 417 begins at an intersection with Route 414 and it heads north through rural wooded areas for a few kilometres. It now passes through Woodstock, where it makes a sharp left to follow along the waters edge just west of downtown, before winding its way through hilly terrain for a few more kilometres. The highway now enters Pacquet, where it winds its way through town before coming to a dead end in a neighbourhood.
