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.

Several blocks north, the routes reach a junction with the western terminus of QC 206 (Rue Main East).

The route runs along the nearby riverside, slowly leaving Coaticook, and soon bending northeast out of the centre of the city.

Continuing north, the route passes the Club de Golf Milby, entering the town of Sherbrooke.
