Route 147 (QC 147) is a 41.5-kilometre (25.8 mi) long north–south highway that runs from the Vermont/United States border in the town of Stanhope. The route begins at the Norton-Stanhope Border Crossing in Stanhope. The route runs north through the Coaticook Regional County Municipality, crossing through Coaticook, Compton and Waterville before reaching a junction with QC 108 and QC 143 in Waterville, which marks the northern terminus of QC 147.
QC 147 begins at the Norton-Stanhope Border Crossing in the community of Stanhope just north of the Canada–United States border; Vermont Route 147 heads south from the border crossing into Norton, Vermont. QC 147 heads north and soon enters the town of Dixville as a two-lane rural road through southern Quebec. QC 147 winds north along St. Lawrence and Atlantic Railroad and the Coaticook River, becoming side-by-side after Chemin Howe. At the junction with Chemin Coward, the route turns away from the railroad for a distance, reaching the developed section of Dixville, which is connected via Rue Baldwin and Chemin Major.
