We had so much fun and of course adrenaline rush at Ziptrek Ecotours. We chose the 3-hour (longer)…read moreroute which included the gondola ride to first station, 5 zip lines and 3 hikes (2 hikes between stations and 1 hike at the end to get back to the start point). We also had forgot to bring our GoPro, so we rented one for $40+taxes. The nice thing about renting the GoPro was that they donate a portion of the money to the organization of your choice (amongst 4 they have pre-picked). Our guides were very friendly and patient with everyone. In our group we had variety of ages (8+); so, they explained every step carefully and let us enjoy. The second zip line is the scariest one and the best one in my point of view. But all the zip lines were fun in different ways, some had better views, some were longer. You could sit, go upside down or hug your knees. At the end, I wished we had more zip lines left and it wouldn't have been over.

While French is their first language, they also speak English. If you do not speak French, be courteous and let them know you speak English. Before you get on the lift, the guides group together and prep you with gear and provide a thorough explanation. We felt safe riding the zip line. The tours are small groups of 10 - 15 with 3 guides. There is communication between the guides on each zip and they check and ensure you are locked in correctly and your straps are where they should be. We rented a go pro for $10CA. Video quality was great. If you are staying in the Pedestrian Village, it is a short 5 min walk from the hotels. A couple of hotels to mention are Fairmont, Hilton Homewood Suites. In my opinion, the price is fair, in USD about $150 per person, 3 hour.

As a gift to a younger family member, a ziplining day was planned and I asked if I could share the…read moreexperience with everyone. I've ziplined before while on vacation, where we were surrounded by greenery. I thought doing it in the heart of Montreal with MTL Zipline would be a new way to experience it. (I was right). As you read the safety protocols and sign waivers, there are a few screens set up so you can watch videos of other zipliners. You are provided with a helmet and harness, which they confirm is placed properly and securely (it's very comfortable; personally speaking, anyhow). The staff members you meet at every stage are really nice and you don't feel rushed. After this, you walk up several flights of stairs to what I call the "launch point". The harness is attached to the zipline, and in what feels like no time at all- you're flying through the air. The view of the Old Port is beautiful and it's fun to see onlookers below. You want to absorb everything you're seeing, and you do, but it is also over before you know it. It's an amazing experience and I could do it over and over again but I am appreciative of having the opportunity to do it at all! It's a fun experience to share with family and create memories. The price is great too (about $25+ per person and they also offer mini putt packages). I highly recommend it, whether you were born and raised here or simply visiting.

The process is fast: - sign a waiver - pay at the counter - head back outside to get geared up Most of the workers here are young but they do an amazing job of making sure you are well strapped into your harness and helmet. I have to say, when I saw the tower in person I was questioning whether I could climb up that high without panting. My advice is to take your time. Surprisingly, I made it all the way without huffing and puffing in the 88 degree weather. There is a nice breeze up top. The most exciting moment was seeing that red light turn to green, the gates swinging open and her releasing me. If you're an adrenaline junkie, you'll love this. Do enjoy the moment and view because it is over very quickly. Where else will you get to zip over the St. Lawrence River and alongside buildings? The speed picked up towards the end and I was like...oh sh*t, is it going to be a hard abrupt stop? A worker will be there to catch you and you will swing like a pendulum. I saw two very brave 6 year old girls do it without any fear and then another kid that was about 9-10 that freaked out as soon as he was strapped in. I know parents want to do it but make sure your child is up to this. If you have long hair, it must be tied up in a ponytail so it doesn't get caught in the zip line. As I exited I was startled with a camera. Worker: do you want a photo? Me: (giggling) Ummm, that would be a no. Worker: (chuckling) no? Me: (giggling again) yeah definitely not. Ms. Bobalicious does not look cute in a helmet. I don't understand the complaint about the price from other reviews. For about $22 U.S., I thought it was totally worth it. It's all about the experience. I say...Just Do It! Check out their website for more info.

My 12 year old was in heaven. He could climb, swing, jump, crawl, and propel himself all under the watchful eye of the wonderful souls in the red shirts. He was perfectly harnessed and they were very explicit in their safety rules. I was able to observe him from the ground in a comfy Adirondack chair with other parents. Some read books, others enjoyed the sunshine. It was a really positive experience. They have a small snack bar which was helpful. It really is a wonderful ropes/obstacle course. They have an inflatable park, but he never made it there since he was having a great time. We will definately go back!

The pacing of the tour was perfect, not too slow, not too strenuous. It is obvious that JF is deeply knowledgable about urbanism, bicycle culture, and the way our built environment impacts our experiences of life. The details he pointed out and the places he brought us are easily overlooked, but super interesting. It is rare to find someone who takes so little for granted in their home environment. This tour was not just a lesson about history and some neighborhoods of Montréal, but about how to observe the world around us. I would give six stars if possible. It did not hurt that the weather was perfect. If it had rained, probably only five stars. It was a fantastic three hours and a highlight of our visit to MTL.

My kids and I also enjoyed the slides and some arcade games, although the claw machines are kind of cheesy.

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.

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.
