Wow this park was an amazing surprise. My family and I love hiking, so we invited some friends and…read morefamily for a nice hike about 1h drive from Montreal. I never been to this park but I looked in that area and this park looked nice and seemed to have trails for our kids hiking levels. The kids loved this park, amazing trails, not that hard that go inside the woods or along the river. Lots of scenic stops, and lots of fun in general. What made us very happy is that this park ALLOWS DOGS (a big thing in Quebec). The park is also very popular as a fishing spot, or for mushroom pickers. The entry is about 5-7$ pp and there is free parking, you can see all the details and trails on the park site, they are also very friendly (and speak English) over the phone. Overall a well deserve 5 stars !

Great park located in the outskirts of Montreal. Pretty popular during the weekends, so don't…read moreexpect a private experience. Not a difficult hike, with trails ranging between 2 and 9 km. If you want to walk around the lake, it will take about 90 minutes at a leisurely pace. Good vistas of the lake and impressive houses scattered along the park. I think the cost is $8.50 per adult. Which is not bad, but at the same time, not free either.

For those in love with water sports kayaking and stand up paddle boarding is available at one of these lakes with some basic facilities to change your bathing suit if you need to. Picnic areas are relatively close to the parking lot and easily accessible. The park gets busy over the weekend as it is very close to Montreal, yet there is a lot of space for everybody and the crowds thin out as you go further climbing the hills. Super place to plan a weekend outdoors!

I've actually helped to throw a gorgeous wedding here in the heritage buildings a number of years ago, it was challenging but so memorable and I'd highly recommend it if you're willing to do the work and deal with the constraints of the space (when they reopen). But winter here is my favourite. We love to come here cross-country skiing as a family, being on these huge trails and wild edges of the island. It's always breezy here in the summer, even hot days are soothing, the waves are wild and you just feel a release from the heaviness of the city. All the more appreciated during these crazy times.

In the end I was ok, with minor concussion and lesions but that was the scariest time in my life. I was pinned to the bottom for what seemed like forever, feeling like it was all slipping away to fast, and all i could think about was not being able to pick up my kids on time from their dads. Thank goodness they were not with me that day. No a great place for little kids AT ALL. Just be safe. Mother nature is not one to mess around with. I will give it a 5 because it is a spectacular place, and gorgeous.

The long rolling falls over smooth granite are just gorgeous. Perfect for picnics, perfect for lounging with your feet in cold water, just perfect for a day trip out of the city.

We biked here from out in Mile End so after a hectic ride through the city, arriving on this island was heaven.

People are here fishing, walking, kayaking and generally relaxing. I didn't find any earth shattering views or anything like that, but a real sense of peace really close to the heart of the city.
