Reviews of Bois-de-Liesse Nature Park (Tourist Attraction)

Armando Bajares

This park is a gem in the West side on Montreal. Located at the edge of an industrial area, it guards a beautiful and peaceful forest great for running or just or hiking. On its West side has a beautiful forest where you are sour rounded by big trees and maples while you are walking in a gravel path. On the East side is more open and if you are a train lover, you can see the local train pass very close to you several times a day. If you are a runner, you can easily do 8kms on their paths and maybe 10kms connecting all together. By the way, in winter it’s algo a good place to do cross-country ski, and also snowshoeing, specially with kids.

Carlo Madeja

Great nature park to escape the city and find yourself surrounded by nature. Extremely popular, especially during holidays

Georgette Horoz

????

Alain Tapp

Nice place to have a long walk in the woods.

Melissa Dawn

Great cross country skiing. You can even bring your dog on the trails! Seeing it's so popular, it tends to get crowded in the afternoon on weekends. Best to go during the week or early in the morning.

Antoine Gaudreau Simard

The west end of this park is great and feels like you are far from the city. The east end is less interesting and sees you crossing streets and going underneath the A13.

Robert Gillelan

Nice paths. Good green space

Bootsie McGee

Clean. Well indicated trails. Visitor areas for restrooms and eating are clean and well maintained. A nice slice of nature in the city.

Curtis C

The northern side of the blue trail was much less busy and more peaceful than the southern side.

I love the biodiversity, and amount of trails for walking and winter sports. The highway noise the only detraction in this wonderful park. The new boardwalks are beautiful, and worth a specific visit.

A little walk outside.

Timothée Poisot

A lot of concrete and bike trails. Definitely a park, but there's not a lot of nature...

Irena 17

One of my favorite parks!!! It's a really big park, you can hike or just sit and enjoy the nature around you. A great place to bring your partner or family for a nice sunny day in the park!

Elia Samaha

Great park on the island of Montreal; cross country skiing in the winter and bike and hike in the summer

Kateryna Lyashenko

Great in winter! Summertime gets very mosquito-y though...beware!

Very beautiful park, you will feel as you are in the middle of forest. A lot of trees Not suitable for patries or social events, its more to walk and observe the beauty of nature.

Too bad the elevated walkways were under construction, but lots to see in this park. Seems great for repeat trips, lots of trails to explore

very nice place to go bike riding i loved it

Maria Jaramillo

Lovely park to spend some hours walking or jogging. Great colours right now

Marc Bastien

Invite ur girl for a walk..

Sacha Cloutier

The site is beautiful and vast. It's a beautiful walk in nature and the squirrels are active and inquisitive. The only downside is that parking is horrible. There seems to be a parking lot that they closed, maybe due to Covid, and the main parking is overflowing.

Adrian Mottram

Quiet. Very private and very secluded. Well maintained and It felt like I was transported to another part of the globe.

Rick Fiorilli

Decent, free cross country ski trails & they also rent equipment... skis, snowshoes, etc...

Nabil Takla

A great walk for winter. Outdoors during a pandemic.

Paul Croubalian

The flavor of up north right in ddo!

Beautiful wooded trails on the island of Montreal. A big plus that we could bring our dog with us (on leash). Be sure to bring bug spray: there were many mosquitos!

Frankie Goes

Really nice place for walking, running, cycling, pic-nick etc...

E G Smith

A great place to slow down and enjoy nature

Alain Gilbert

Be aware danger for bikers.I got badly injured there.

Ola Tjornbo

The 13 runs right over this park and the noise dominates all the trails. There are also several ugly.industrial buildings in the champs zone. Overall not worth a detour.

Brian Knoepfel

Nice for a bike ride with the kids. Picnic area was a bit crowded.

Demy

It's a very beautiful park ,well Maintained!!! summer ,Autumn and winter.

Elaine MC

Great place to walk around, jog or even bike around.

Pradeep Pai

nice trail place

Larry Fagen

The best kept secret of the entire city. Beautiful cross country skiing and cycling. I don't understand why it's not full of people 24/7.... I guess it's because there's now WiFi

Kevin Yo

I went there to try crosscountry skiing and it was really worth while. The paths are clean and nice. I reccomend.

Eugenie Robitaille

Ruth Pittman

Nice park to get away from the rest of civilization and chill out

Jean Jean

Great outdoors

Cory Jay

Really relaxing area.

Michael L

What a shame that anyone would have so little consideration or respect for the park - and the people who use it. There's littering and then there's littering ! This is litter we do not want to see ! And don't get me started on physical distancing. Arrogant selfishness is alive and well.

Nicholas Walker

If you like walking in the woods or riding your bike on smooth trails, this place is great. It is on the island of Montreal off Gouin Blvd, tucked away from view. My wife and I walk while our kids ride their bikes. It costs $9 a day for parking. Altogether, it's a great way to spend an afternoon.

Allan Goodridge

Excellent walking venue with occasional glimpses of wildlife.

Gurpreet Singh

Nice place at where can listen the silent voice of nature in Montreal. Also, you can see the people doing skating.....

Helio Alves

It's a nice Parc to do some walking in summer and cross-country skiing in winter.

Great park to visit that doesn't feel in the middle of the city

Amirreza Rahmatollahi

This place is really Cool, Peaceful, Calm and Greeny. Nice place for biking with bike lane.

Luca Colonnese

Too many cyclists driving too fast and crowding the pedestrians. Lots of mud on the paths. Lots of poison ivy. I will not go back. Rigaud and Ile bizard both have way better hiking.

MONIQUE ROY

Great place for a walk! Nice setup. Expensive parking fee though. I'm park in the residential sector next time.

Arman Faruqui

N1ce park ????

Very good park. My only complain is too many mosquitos!

biswajit chatterjee

Nice park with many trails..well marked directions

Daniel Hernandez

Great park for cross country skiing in the city.

Leo Frenza

It was nice, slightly crowded. Would have be nice to cross country ski there but there's lots of hikers so you wouldn't be able to go for long uninterrupted bursts (maybe go really early)

Olena Salnikova

It is the wonderful place to walk, but you can be attaked by mosquitos in the summer months.

Eric Schultz

Wonderful trails and urban forest

Ricardo Uribe

Great place for the whole family and forget that you are still in the city.

Darsh Media

Scenic Nature with beautiful trails and picnic spots

Frankie Lixin Wang

beautiful view, nice paths, different path for ski and walk.

Melissa Lockey-Chatham

This park is an incredible find for anyone who loves to immerse themselves in nature. The trails are simple to walk and extremely enjoyable. From elevated platforms to open field to Japanese inspired garden infrastructure, there is something for everyone to enjoy. If you want a serene environment and peaceful time to yourself, do yourself a favor and visit.

Marius Laurentiu Munteanu

Nice place, hiking and biking tracks, picnic area with tables.

Paul Evers

Great cycling and Hiking and Cross Country Skiing

Sivan Rehan

The water side is not so impressive surprisingly. The nicer area is the woods area. I recommend starting at the Welcome center off Henry Bourassa in VSL. The park is very dog friendly and even has a dog bowl near the water fountain.

SA M

Hiking trails , bike paths and bbq/picnic areas . Dogs aloud on a leash and all the reception chalets are wheelchair accessible .

Tommy Furino

Nice trails through the forest. Peaceful and quiet. Parking is a little expensive for the suburbs though.

So beautiful in the and winter You could see the rabbits, stream, take a beautiful refreshing hike and lots more

Armand Kazandjian

Great park, just wish trails were longer

Jean-François Daignault

Beautiful, peaceful park (despite the 13 highway that goes through it!). My favourite part is Ruisseau Bertrand that runs through it - one of the few surviving uncovered brooks on Montreal island. See my pics of Ruisseau Bertrand, in and outside of the park.

Olivia Burrows

peaceful place! keep it like this!

kali myst

Great place for a walk, though between June and September the mosquitoes are voracious. You can spot all sorts of animals - over the years I've seen chipmunks, meadow voles, squirrels, groundhogs, beavers, ducks, geese, raccoons, fox, coyote, grass snakes, wild turkey, rabbits, skunks, moles, rabbits, grey owls and a wide assortment of birds.

Swaroop Mk

Awesome park in the west island. Feels like you're in the woods far away from city, yet so close to home. You gotta watch out for tons of mosquitoes in the summer though

Richard Bergeron

Lots of trails, wide paths and plenty of parking on Sunnybrook.

Helena Jonasova

Love this park, great for running, usually quite during the week. Great for kids lots of planned activities.

Valérie Duro

A lovely park. Trails are easy and flat. Rather short (about 3 km each) but you can combine them for a longer hike. There is some fun bridges through the forest and even a fun view of the river on the peninsula trail.

hicham g

Just wow

Robert Vladu

Nice place to have a BBQ with friends and where the kids can play ball or ride the bike.

Tina Patafie

Beautiful wooded area, well maintained and very clean. We had a lovely day there!

Dr Gaurav Dadhich

Safe, Beautiful, Peace, Hiking... Adjectives are short defining this place. You can spend good family time. Hearing birds n enjoying nature. There are small small wooden bridges inside as well as a restaurant n help desk inside.

Hannah Milligan

It's beautiful here and so much wildlife

Séverine Godet

Swamp area, so not such a good idea during summer time, it buzzes with mosquitos !

Maria Pachon

Great place to bike and walk, there are sky rental service in winter

Tudor Parau

Love this gem of nature nicely tucked on our island. It's a bit hidden away and that's what makes it great. It's quiet and not overly crowded. Walks are decently long and most of the time you forget that you are in Montréal.

Kate R

Scenery is not very Nature'ish. Paved paths and paths going under highway bridge. Not very scenic.

Truong Ngoc Vinh Le

Good place for patin and ski

C C

It's a beautiful place to cross country ski or snowshoe or even just go for a winter walk. If you're not skiing, stay off the ski tracks please.

They don’t take care of the forest, it’s difficult to walk. It’s just ok

John Mandrake

It's quiet and nice, but full of mosquitoes. It's a cute place but nothing too outstanding.

Seren Dagdeviren

Love hiking and biking here. Nice long trails

Dimple Bakshi

Its amazingly beautiful. Things to take into consideration before planning a trip to this place: 1. Carry mosquito repellent 2. Its free of cost 3. The frequency of the public transport is not very good

Tomer Markovich

Wish i could let my dog go explore, but nevertheless, good place for a walk that makes you feel like you're out of town..

When you need peace in a city that never sleeps

Was a bit run down as compared to Mont Royal or Lachine.

Brian B.

A superb forest walk with a few section of impressive elevated walkways.

Alvaro Diego Herrera

Nice and peaceful place without getting out from Montreal island

Linda Khv

I love going there for my long lonely quiet in the woods in the city walk! Never regretted any time! Cross-country ski is fun there too! Tracks and indicators are well maintained!

Nice trails for ski, snowshoes and walking with the whole family. Great snow hill to slide on too!

Awesome park, a lot of places to visit and a lot of activities possible....like , bicycle, jogging, walking, dog friendly, picnic or just simply relaxing. also in winter, mount sliding, ski and so on...

K S

Really nice trail in the middle of the city. Not too crowded.

Prisci MV

Great spot for a nice walk, even if access to the water (from Sunnybrook road) towards the river, is blocked for now.

Sako Sekeryan

So close to home yet feels like up North. Wow

Lisa George

Hidden on the island, a beautiful spot for a casual walk. Despite being divided by a busy road it's easy to get lost in the scenery. There are various marked trails that you can follow and a good amount of spots to stop and relax.

Oliva G

Beautiful park ... ideal to go with a stroller and to have a picnic

Claire Lu

Went in the winter for cross country skiing and it exceeded my expectations. Paths were really fun for a beginner like me, but they also had harder paths for intermediate skiers. Scenery was amazing and the staff at the rentals were very nice and friendly. 10/10 winter experience!

Tyler Wylie

Living in the city is great , but have km's of amazing forest trails is definitely a positive. Trails are maintained all year round and just a wonderful place for a stroll

RaHaa Edi

We visit there in the fall which was marvellous. There are some walking and cycling trails there with lots of sigh seeing stations for birdwatching and some cottages which have recreation facilities

Melinda Doucette

Beautiful for cross country skiing. It's a great place to go, especially for beginners. It's all flat except for one hill and one small slope.

Manjit

Great nature park for biking or jogging.

Chung-Ngy Ung

Nice park, just waiting for more green!

Jose Fernadez

I love walk there

Sandrine Gressard

Feels like the country side while you are in the city. Nice.

Nice park for 4 seasons of outdoor fun and sports. Biking and jogging paths in the summer and cross country skiing in the winter.

Roxanne White

Its simply beautiful!

RG Video Creations

Great place in the west island, i went there with my bicycle. I give it 4 star because the map is confusing and easy to get lost. I thought i was the only one having hard time understanding the map but i also saw couple other families figuring out were exactly they were. Other than that Park is excellent and well maintained! Its a must visit. Its Open during Covid-19 just make sure their opening times on google !

El Taj

Wonderful place. I go there often. Very nice

g g

Really nice parc with natural type forest trails.

Carl E.

Beautiful and peaceful forest with great walking paths in the summer and cross country skiing trails in the winter. What more is there to say!

Aggie T.

Enjoyable trails.

Yasmina E. Jimenez

It's a great place for a walk, lots of twists and turns, some parts feel like a real walk through a forest, other parts feel too many made. However I loved the Japonese path and the few spots to sit.

Spyros Papachristou

Small park, nice for short walks. In the winter many paths are closed. Open paths are good for cross country skiing and walking.

sridhar etneni

Excellent Park. Very good place for picnics and biking. Very pleasant.

Bill Riley

There are a few quiet spots in this park that are so precious to me that I don"t want to see them overrun with visitors. I haven"t seen it all, however, nor have I been in winter. In summer, bring inxect repellant - the mosquitoes have not been tamed nor banished.

Yugadhi Ajoy

One of the best urban parks I've been to! A great place for a walk or ride on bike! Squirrels and chipmunks running around! ????????????

Mariah Valdes

Walking in the woods in Downtown Pierre fonds Roxboro

ildar ildar

Beautiful

Nabil MARHOUM

Great place to enjoy the nature in MTL

Frederic Houle

Amazing natural park! No need to go far for a breath of fresh air.

There are some washrooms available, and a place where food and drink may be purchased. Walking trails, and cross country skiing, here, make for a nice nature walk.

Iesha Dennis

Fun to walk around in. Beautiful park

Andrea Di Iorio

Great place for a walk in natuer

luc fournier

Very beautiful, truly enjoyed the many kms of clean trails.

Judy Hung

We find it a very busy park with lots fast cyclists. My dogs are not fond of them. We also find the « passerelle japonais » beautiful and interesting, but the walking path of it is not meant for our dogs’ paws ???? , as the grates are too large, be very careful if you are coming with dogs. It’s nice to have a beautiful and dog friendly park in the area!

Cassonade

Lovely trail, the perfect place for an afternoon stroll. With the lake in the back drop, this was just added as one of my favorite place to visit.

Alex Wagner

Well made pathways. Interesting set up.

Laurence Dang

Gorgeous trails for urban forest hiking and biking, nicely maintained cross country skiing trails in winter.

Santiago MONTES

Very nice park to walk or cycling

Jean-Philippe Cyr

If the idea of walking in the woods with the sound of the highway in the background is a peaceful one for you, then this is your spot.

Bil White

Still some problems with flooding on the path under the 13. And the construction continues blocking certain paths. Will take time for the undergrowth to grow back in.

Greg Johnson

Great park not far from downtown, not very crowded, lots of nice biking and hiking trails

Tim Eccles

Great place to cross country ski

Majd Bakar

Nice for a brisk walk.

Paria RK

It's a huge park for waking, skiing and snowshoeing in winter. It's suitable for adults and kids.

Arman Tarighi

Great for picnic and nice trails for cycling

Sabrina P

Feels like your in the middle of the woods just right outside of DDO

Catalin Gruia

This park is a gem. Not big, though, but good enough to spend an evening in nature. You have to pay to park the car, otherwise is free.

Simon van Norden

Wonderful for a few km skiing within city limits!

Anh Thu Dinh

Beautiful park wether for a walk or activities. Enchanting scenery after a snowstorm. Can also do cross country, snowshoeing here.

Frankie Laffie

Nice and clean place

brenden burkinshaw

A breath of fresh air

It is beautiful with lots of seating and picnic area for great gathering and a BBQ U can also find little animals roaming around the park Parking is available at alittle cost Worth it

Raul Galvez

Excellent park for walking, running, biking, bird watching and nature, excellent roads, bridges, walkways. I love this place & the family ❤

Moe Leb

This park is great for both bikes and walks. The park is big with alot of paths. It's fun getting lost in there lol. There's maps so don't worry. Good terrain lovely greens in the summer and plenty of room for winter activities. Great place to spend some time

Nicole Macdonald

Lots of nature in the city???????? The picnic area is really nice..pretty flowers, water fountain (even for the dog)..lots of tables , beautifull trees and nature..the park is very large and is fun to walk or bike in the summer. The only negative thing is that it is a bit dangerous the cross boul. Gouin (close to the 13) to go from one side of the park to the other side..there should be a cross walk, or something to make it safer????????

Cayleigh Sorella

Great place for snow shoeing, cross country skiing and walking. Some of the trails are closed and the markings are hard to figure out in certain places. It's a great place to get a breath of fresh air. The workers are kind and helpful, the trails are free to use, and there is equipment to rent. The only downfall is that parking is 9$ for the day (7$ for 2h).

Nadia Gagnon

Simply beautiful.

Droneing (Ismokesalots)

Beautiful woods with many paths to walk and bike.

Sylvie P.

My place for a good walk in nature open all year long

Kent Tse

Small nature park that we use for cross country skiing or just walks in nature. Recently there are areas closed off for construction so the trails are very short ????. Hopefully they will reopen in the spring and we'll have access to all the trails.

Jéssica Almazán

Some parts are really beautiful while other are just ok. Nice walk. Beware of the mosquitos!!!!

Zarasor

Wonderful nature park. Great place for a leisurely walk in some fresh air.

S M

On a beautiful fall day it is a beautiful place for a nature walk. Some areas were closed off though.

Kedar Warriner

Great park for walking, skiing, snowshoeing. And FREE!

David Benadiva

Well maintained park. Some paths closed during the winter. Parking fee $9 as of March 2016. Signage mostly in French, but easily understood.

R W Sax

That's a very popular destination and a green lung of the west island.

Igor Pivovar

Very beautiful park, good place for barbecue.

Perry Nguyen (Phu'c)

Two tobogan hills popular with kids and adults ! 5 Km of Snow-shoe trail. 10 Km of Cross-country trail. Equipment rental available. Free parking on street in front of L'Oreal Kids. Summer is lovely, too !

thewaflwizard

Nice calm park with many trails for pedestrians and bikers. It is also a great spot to go cross-country skiing on the island of Montreal. Recommend going there about 1 hour before sunset as there is less people at that time.

Bhagwan Athare

This century-old forest of black maples is home to a diversified ecosystem. you can see several species of plants and animals. Wildflowers carpet the forest floor in spring, the Bertrand stream teems with a rich aquatic fauna and birds sing undisturbed. When snow covers the ground, the park becomes a meeting place for winter loves. The 158-hectare playing field features cross-country skiing, hiking and snowshoeing trails, as well as two sledding mounds. The park’s winter landscape is sure to delight visitors.

Dabi andC

One of the best park in Montreal.

Jonathan Bohbot

Very clean and well kept trails. Smells of pot, otherwise I'd give it 5 stars

Claude Everton

Nice, easy walking and cross country skiing trails.

Charles Victory

Peaceful place and also you can ride tour bike

Argilaking Argilaking

Very nice hike very child friendly

Steven Troll

Awesome trails and very good support staff

Sean Glover

Quite nice for being a local walk and gives you an out-of-city feel

Marianne Da Costa

Too noisy due to highway

Yanik

A nice quiet day in the park. I've live in Montreal for over 20 years and never went to this park before. Should be great to live close to such a nice park for walk or runs. It's 9$ to park for more than 2hours, unless you know another entrance from accross the park, then you can park on the residential streets. We appreciated the Japanese walkway and how well covered the biggest part of the park was. Some small educational part of the park also seems to still be working. Takes about 3 hours do do the entire park, and will do it again one day soon!

Patrick Thurston

Pretty

François Deguire

Great park for running or just getting away from the city for a little bit.

Doris BC

Perfect!

Mahsa Karimian

What a beautiful park for a hike. Many beautiful sceneries. Trail is quite long so prepare to follow directions!

Johanne Ladner

Beautiful "hidden" treasure in the heart of the West Island with many km's of trails for hikers and cyclists to enjoy, refreshing streams to cool off your pooch, a variety of bird species to discover, and so much more. Love hiking these trails.

N Corbos

The park is no longer what it was few years ago, needs lot of maintenance

Bibiana Jáuregui

Beatiful place, I want to go back!!

Mark Stafinski

What a great place to give you the feel of getting away while still being close to home (for West islanders, anyway). You can easily make a day of this place because there’s a lot to offer - nature walks of course, nice, well-maintained, picnic benches and fire pits, space to play badminton or kick the soccer ball around, and fishing. It’s never too busy so you can always find a quiet place to sit back and read if quietude is your thing.

Sylvain Brisebois

Very good place to walk, ski and fat-bike

Reine Khairallah

Really nice park that allows many activities such as biking, snowshoeing, walking. If you are a walker like me, you can park on the side of the street & not at the main entrance and walk all the way to the water front. There's also a sitting area with picnic tables.

Elizabeth Taylor

Beautiful variety of trails.

Jerry Ng

For an urban park,it is a nice get away

Desmond Yu

All season nature and recreation place for all ages.

Polina Tarasenko

Great spot for short hikes

George Chen

Good place for cross country sky and tubing in winter

David Hsieh

Beautiful trails, well maintained but some cyclists are going to trails they shouldn't and some don't even slow downs

Daiana Gamentz

Worth a visit! Fall is so beautiful in this place!

Louay Jabry

Other than Mont-Royal, best urban park on the Island of Montreal for all kind of summer and winter activities. Large and expansive, you will soon forget that you are in a major city. Best place to learn cross-country ski and try out snowshoeing. Sure, there is also Cap-St-Jacques but it is a little too out of the way and tucked in the Northwest corner of the island. This one is smack in the western middle.

Mikaela BMc

Lots of cute critters and beautiful simple foliage when we went.

Samantha

Quiet and well maintained trails.

Bryn Williams-Jones

Could be a decent park but the highway noise is incessant and very annoying, and omnipresent on all the trails. Much better parks in Lachine, Verdun and LaSalle.

Jason Behrmann

This nature reserve in the heart of the suburbs is worth visiting. There is a large diversity of animals, many of which are rare such as salamanders and turtles. The reserve has good facilities--bathrooms and seating areas

JK N

Great for cross-country skiing or even hiking

Alexandra J

Love that place. Tons of outdoor activities for young and old, fit or not

Nara Fata

It's a nice park but a bit close to the highway, you can hear cars a lot in some areas.

Tiffany Desousa

Love these trails

yu Johnny

Nice park,got a friend's wedding there.

Hilary L. Archer

We had fun walking through the park

Chitra Sewsagur

Lots of bikes and a bit crowded but nice place for a socially distanced walk

Celina Clavero

What a beautiful park, the lady at the information center was so nice and knowledgeable.

Johanne Brosseau

Too many people today but nice place

pythonlover2

Beatiful place to go for a nice walk

Moh Ali

It's resourceful, beautiful views and calming

First time to this park. It is beautiful. And big and quiet. Can walk forever. I was with my dog Watch out for the moskistos.

Chris V

I've been here a few times and I love it. It has lots of paths for both walking and biking although keep in mind some paths are walking only. Also the 13 runs over a part of it so don't expect peace and quiet. It also has a tendency to flood in the spring so be warned. Overall a great nature park.

Jimmy Fragos

Beautiful park for pictures of nature and hiking or walking!

pierre bruno

Best spot near home. Good job Montreal park management.

Michael Duquette

Love taking walks through this forest nice and quiet no city noise

Daniel Abisdris

Great escape from the heat and noise. My favorite place in the West-Island Montreal.

Gonzalo Priego

Awesome wooded park in the heart of Montreal's West Island. Bring your mosquito repellent after the next day after rain!

Vic Toria

Lovely little get away spot

Jasmin Singh

Very nice - there were a lot of ducks which made it a fun family place. There are also long walking trails, and a river.

Marko Polo

Super nice park, if you have a mid range mountain bike you'd have tons of fun

Alexander Makarenko

Mosquitos are going to eat you alive, don't forget repellent

Red B

I didn't know this place until I saw a friend post it and it's close. Very calm and good place to get in touch with nature. Open for biking and walking during summer and available even winter.

S Gopal Lokanathan

Nice bit of woods in the middle of town. Has been dog friendly for 30 years, I don't know about the future.

Doug F

Love all outdoor activities here!

Paul Jodoin

Nice place, not too busy. The only downside is the fact that a major highway runs in the middle of the park. Nice getaway to the country in the city.

Jose Agustin Delgado Arguello

Excellent park for the whole family????

David Peroff Michaud

Very nice outdoor parc. Like to go biking there

Arto Basmadjian

ALEXANDER TORRES

only a regular forest , a lot of mosquitos

Lidia Marinova

Worst park ever, I don't know how a place in the industrial zone is considered a park! I was once and no any intention to return!

Jia Wei Zhang

Great place to learn cross-country skiing. My son loves it.

Michele Valmora

It's ok

Hugo Leclaire

It's a nice urban park for both cyclists and pedestrians, good times to have here, well worth the detour.

Mich I

Perfect ski trail

Nora Elh

Nice and relaxing to get some nature time in. Walk run or ski.

Beanie Taylor

Definitely worth a visit. Nice walks. Bugs galore in summer (now). Great cross country ski trails and snowshoeing. Free parking on the street not on the property.

Manggo Banggo

Fun little walk! Not far from the city at all.

Nathalia Mesquita

Great place for a picnic!!

al hill

This well used place is very unusual, a wonderful gem, and friendly park. Summer requires bug spray. Lots of wide, well marked paths for walking and biking in the summer. Lots of paths for cross-country ski and snowshoeing. Around my area, Sunnybrooke entrance, lots of free street parking. Pay parking on the Douglas B. Floreani main entrance, just off Henri-Bourassa. This is where the Chalet is, with bathrooms, information, water, and they sell snacks, hot-chocolate, coffee. Lots of ferns, flowers, plants, birds, animals to see. Creek and bridges to enjoy, and lookout points, and a few swamp areas, one is getting its wooden walkway rebuilt. Near the chalet are picnic tables, water fountain, and porta-potty. In winter the hill here is great for sledding. Great place to get away from things and hear the forest. Bigger than it seems, with a second chalet and another place to park. Streaches to the River Prairies, where those ponds have nice birds and turtles too.

Daniel Schipprack

Beautiful park to walk

Igor L

Snow, smile, season.. Super!

Prashant Tiwari

Nice place for walk and meditation.

Jon H

The place is too disorganized, and lack of maintenance. It is near Montreal, I expect better. It does not worth the trouble to come here. If you're looking for a natural place to walk/hike, find somewhere else.

Stephen Bachleda

Well maintained and very pleasant hiking and biking nature trail. Peaceful lots of trees some birds and small wildlife like squirrels.

georges doumit

Good hour walk that could end up if a fresh water lake and nice view

Marcelo Alves

Very nice place for raquete

Duncan McGregor

A beautiful oasis in the middle of an urban setting. It is too close to railways, highways and residences.

Panos Apostolakis

Tranquil place to hang out in summer or winter. Picnic areas, good cross country skiing, small tobagganin hill. I'm taking away one star due to the parking fees...7$/hr

Mark Anthony Mier

Great place for a quiet walk...

Danny Rego

Lots of nice paths.

D Pineault

Beautiful trails to walk through. Very well organized with maps at every junctions. Paths are large and well maintained. Great place to relax, take the kids to explore, go for a bike ride... You can picnic at the chalet and they have restrooms. They also offer snacks at the chalet. My only complaint is the interactive displays are all in French only. This has no impact on me, but I'm more concerned for visitors/tourists.

Gabriela Aparicio

Nice place for walk

Ryan Cooper

An amazing and accessible local hiking spot on the island. Great for getting your kids out in the sun and trees!

Alma Cindy

Picnic area with tables and garden

Wonderful, specially for bikes' riders.

Lindsay Rollins

Beautiful park! It's very big with lots to see!

Vanessa H

It's a nice place and very well indicated. Wear some bug repellent.. I got quite a few bites from my visit. You must pay your parking for either 2 hours or full day ($9 something)

Kirsten Gillespie

I love walking these woods with my kids. My preference is to park at the Chalet des Champs. It has lots of benches for picnicking and it's a short walk to the bridge over the stream that my kids like exploring.

brandi

It was a beautiful walk minus some people not following rules and letting their dog off leash

Mohamad Abou

Its a very nice place to walk on weekend, ride on a bike,smaling the pure air...

One of the largest forests in Montréal! On a hot day you can feel the temperature come down the second you bike through it!

Larry Matheson

A great place to get some exercise

Anne Weber-Ouellette

Accessible park with beautiful paths : the “passerelle” section of the trails offers impressive views from way up high!

dc B

Beware!!! Bike route closed. at rail tracks just after passing under the 13 .until October. No other way to access the other sectors of the park. Only a busy, Boulevard Gouin with no bike lane. ????????

Camil Filar

Absolutely loved the scenery and skating through the forest was awesome

Traveller

Another nice park on the West Island . Big enough to enjoy a good walk , ride with the bike . In winter it is suitable for skiing, snow shoeing or just doing a walk through the woods. Very calming.

Vanesa Decastelli

Beautiful place ???? if you love nature

g

So pretty

mohamad ali hashemi

Best place for cycling in summer.

Sonny Junior Jean-baptiste

Perfect for a jog or long walk.Bunch of monuments to look at.

M Florea

A park crossed by a highway, a railroad and a street and tottaly flooded at the time I was there. You can listen though to the birds chirping... on the background of the highway noises. That's something special! A plus would be the dogs allowed in the park in leashes which are barking at you. One of the rare parks I would not recommend in Great Montreal area in any season. There are many other much better.

SHALOM PAUL

Make sure to carry insect repellent ????

Raphael Aponte

Lovely park for hiking and climbing!

Brendan Hurley

Frederic B.

Nice to walk, some of the paths have access to water

julie jodoin

Very nice place for both shorter or longer walks, clean trails, well identify.

Louis Girard

Perfect for that "hike in the woods" feeling. Trails, small and large, well majntained with ample parking and picnic area. Bridges and rivulets puntuate your journey and educational signs teach you about the surrounding wildlife. Park accessible in winter with trails for walking, snowshooing, and crosscountry skiing.

Paul Hewer

Walk forever but can't shake the sound of Highway 13 right next to it. If you are looking for peace and quiet... This not the park for you.

Paulo Caser Caetano (Caetanop)

If you want to disconnect, you got the right place! Trekking and biking sharing trails .Parking available

Dan Mac

Nice place for a walk in the forest on groomed and marked trails. Public washrooms and picnic areas available. You can easily walk 10k on different trails.

Eric Francoeur

Nice forest, tiny.. But nice

Haig Terzian

Nice park to walk, bike or cross country ski. they even have a place for picnic will all facilities.

Elizabeth Brassard

The bridge was closed so could not do the whole park.

Natalie Trepanier

I go walking there all the time it feels like being far away in a forest in town...

Azael Huerta

Very nice forest area in the west island, you can bring your pet to walk the trails this parkas to offer. You can also ride your bike in this place. You can also enjoy this park during the winter time.

James Lewis

Great for cross country skiing, however there are a lot of families with children at peak hours. This leads to many interruptions and having to go around people or slow down

Jitendra Shah

Good place to walk with family on summer day

Aijaz Ali

Good place to walk.

François Caron

Nice place, not too busy. The only downside is the fact that a major highway runs in the middle of the park. Nice getaway to the country in the city. You have to pay for your parking which I don't like...all nature parks should have free parking.

Ritche Braga

Nice place to hike and picnic!

MJ

Beautiful park, nice walking paths. Kids love it here.
