Reviews of Rapids Park (Tourist Attraction)

William chatimer

nice spot to get away from the crowd. Good fishing and friendly locals.

alanis vasquez

Love this place. Whenever I just want to take a walk I go there. Amazing view and never too crowded

Elliot Lecrux

The view was perfect.

Fabian Sanchez

Look for the bird sanctuary

Mamadou Alpha Ba

Very nice place to relax

ravi teja

Very beautiful in fall. But at the start of summer, as there is no greenery yet, it is much like a forest full of leaf-less trees. And we can enjoy kayaking near the park. So, it's a beat place for a desperate day-off.

Erika Deziel

Amazing... simple as that!!!

Elegant Weddings

Couldn't get it to closer to rapids as the Parc to that area was closed by hydro Quebec indefinitely. But I've been there before and will get more pics next time

Beautiful park zen . Lovly flowers great sound of the water and waves .just a lovely spot with amazing nature and so many wild life to see just so close to home . A must check out spot

Juraj Podsklan

Quite liked the place, though it was way too hot and humid on the day when we visited. It wasn't very busy and part of the park was closed off. The water looked a bit too dangerous to kayak in and we didn't see anyone in the parts with strongest current, though there were a few people further down the river, so they may have gone through the rapids.

Mike

I was really looking forward to this park I wanted to get up and close to the rapids it's one of the reasons why I came up this way, so I can see the incredible for of this natural phenomenon. The park was closed and it seemed to be closed for a while and it was never indicated on my GPS which was unfortunate i had to view the rapids from a view far distance.

Mahdi Sharifian

Absolutely amazing. Such a nice nature with spectacular views of waves and seabirds.

aj mckenzie

Lovely quite place tons of animals got to see some baby geese and a groundhog lots of birds

Christian Fritschi

One of my favorite Parks for Great Blue Herons, White Egrets and ducks of all types. Canada Geese are currently nesting.

Beautiful scenery. Unfortunately, most of it was closed due to covid restrictions. But I'll definitely be back when this is all over!

Jisan Samrat

Awesome park next to the river.

Bruno Langevin

Nice park. Clean beautiful view. Good place for outdoor workout

Shahrzad Foroghi

Very quite and clean place beside st lawrence river to enjoy fresh air all year!

Claudia

Pure enchantment by the St-Lawrence river rapids. This promenade has been routed with brilliantly crafted railings, benches, picnic tables and to top it off...even garbage cans. I was incredibly impressed with the whole process that went into highlighting this gem of a place. The bonus...it's all free! Now for an important security suggestion...place some key barriers where one can fall off many points along the paths...very dangerous! To conclude...thanks for showcasing such an amazing place.

Rick Burgos

In this location you can get great pictures. You can bring your kids, take pictures of birds, sunrise and sunset. Also this is a bird sanctuary. It's beautiful. Photographers like this place for wedding photography. If you're a photographer you need to check this park. You can take walks here and run. The best times are sunrises and sunsets to visit this location.

D V

Great place just to sit on a bench, eat a sandwich and relax. Please note: bikes are not allowed.

Iryna

It is nice place to have walk with the kids. Like small forest????

Faucon

River surfing ????

Kevin Yo

Been here because the national park was full. And the rapids are quite impressive to look at. Other than that, it's a casual walk with a path in the nature.

Eugenie Robitaille

Great place to watch shore birds.

Wojciech Sawicki

Fantastic spot for bird photography... or just to stroll and relax.

D M

Awesome easy walk next to the river and the sound of the rapids is just so soothing and beautiful???? no public toilet though close by, or we did not see one. Other than that you can have a little picnic there with family.

JAIDEEP SINGH SACHDEV

Very beautiful and peaceful place. A must visit for bird lovers. Lot of benches to sit and enjoy. Can rent bixi cycles also. Convenient to reach by public transport.

Mariam Abbasi

Nice park, unfortunately Rapids section is closed off right now so couldnt see them

Habib Rabiei

Enjoy walking there, very nice and beautiful.

Alyssa

Enjoyed a lovely little picnic in the park. Very relaxing and beautiful

Jean-Francois Desrosiers

Great little piece of nature steps from the city. Though, as often when it's free, it attracts people that just don't know how to live in society.

Thami Amrani

Nice parc but Dogs are forebiden even on leash.

Elizabeth Urbanowicz

Beautiful park. It's a great place to relax in nature.

Adib El Nouri

Beautiful by all means

Alex Lamarche

View is amazing. Nice little ice cream shop nearby

William Big G Rothwell

Great place to walk and see birds and ducks and geese.

Yulia Henegar

Fantastic getaway into nature beauties. I love it all the year round. Early mornings when the fog is coming up above the water or in winter after heavy snowfall: when the trees are all white and silent

Majid Rezazadeh

Very spectacular park with great view toward lake!

Bazi

I went there really often in my life, it is a beautiful peace of nature in our way too urban montreal, BUT if like me you like to relax in a smoke free environment this is not the place, people smoke marijuana and cigarettes and so the place smells bad.

Khaled Joober

Must see

Fatemeh Sayadi

I love it there, the sound of birds, river, and wind. What a masterpiece. It has bicycle road. Not crowded. Even the smell is very nice, really peaceful place, the only problem is there are so many bugs there.

Michiel Huiskens Nogueira

Beautiful little park with many cozy places to sit, relax and cool down in the shadow. Right next to the rapids it's nicely refreshing in the summer. Definitely recommend visiting this park, it's easy to get to as well.

Biblio Curiosa

Great walking spot!

Gleb Galkin

Great place. It has rapid waters on one side and completely calm waters on the other. Beautiful in any time of the year. More people on weekends. So if you would like to really enjoy the calmness and beauty of it - come weekdays anytime. A lot of birds of different kinds, sometimes migrating and will be on this peninsula for a few weeks then disappear for years... You'll love it. My favorite place for years.

Ali

Amazing palce for walking

Eric Veilleux

Great parc, some picnic tables are available.

Mathieu Auclair

Great place for a brisk Sunday afternoon walk.

Pierre “Grumpy Old Man” Bouchard

My go to place to relax... Love this place !!!

Russell Parkway

I can walk here every day. This place never gets old.

Sivan Rehan

Beautiful and interesting park. It's a bird sanctuary but also a historical place as it is the place where Jacques Cartier got stuck with his ships. These rapids create a barrier and are the reason that Montreal became such an important hub.

Caitlin Doyle

Beautiful green space. Great view of the rapids. Many species of birds to see there and sometimes even beavers.

Lp Camozzi

Beautiful age old place to relax by the fast moving St Lawrence river. Lots of birds and fast moving rapids.Dont let kids get close. Too dangerous. Fishers must wear life jackets. Nice place for a picnic lunch for a small group.

Narendra Chandra

Nice view and weather was extremely peaceful

Fedor Ouspenski

Beautiful place. Not too crowded.

Doug M.

Great park. Nice little escape from the city life while still being in the city.

I love to walk around this park and shoot images of the nature, the ducks, the geese. Even hunting Pokemon in PokemonGo I've spent hours walking around this park and it was never a dull moment.

George Homer (Harley)

The nicest Park in LaSalle!!

Michel Condoroussis

Very nice open park with lots of open space. There is also a ???? sanctuary in the back with a nice view of the rapids which I was quite surprised to see as I was not aware that it existed. The bike path also makes it easily accessible and there is even a Bixi station, the last one going west so an easy bike to the metro.

LEONARDO BLENGINI

Natural and quiet place!!!! Beautiful

Catherine

One of my favorite places in LaSalle ❤

Shyamchand M

Be it summer or winter, rapids park is a fun place to be.

Aimee Gillis

Beautiful walking paths , nicely maintained. Lots of space , trees . Ideal spot to relax, picnic or play games . Certain parts have Canada geese roaming around , which is nice . For the more adventurous folks, there is a lovely beaten path along the shore.

Jean-François Daignault

Beautiful park with wildlife and local fauna. You can get very close to the rapids (watch the kids!) which are sight to behold. We've taken many out-of-towners there and all loved it, want to go back. Bike path goes right by there and makes for a lovely ride.

Gary Parker

Nice walk with picnic tables

Wayne Radford (UncommonAdvisor)

Awesome nature reserve. Additional site access, paths, bridges, dams and benches add to the Natural Beauty of the Lachine Rapids.

roza sarker

First time but best of the best feeling and fantastic views

Srivathsan Adivarahan

Nice park with a great view of the rapids.

Tina Mancini

So peaceful and lots of birds. Nice water views too!

John Doe

It's a nice place to rest if you're running or biking near the riverbed. Though the river is littered with trashes which makes a disgusting sight. There are some migratory birds that come by every spring so it makes a good spot for birding. The place is situated in a pretty isolated area and it's not easy to get by public transit. Cleanliness is also an issue as people don't throw their trashes properly (or is it because there trash bins don't get empty often?)

Sajjad Majidizadeh

Nice place for quick walk and bbq (no facility tho, so be prepared)

Teddy Beyba

A beautiful park to unwind in, alongside the river. Always beautiful no matter what season!

Alex Nuta

Went there to take some pictures by the river. Great preserve. A lot of wildlife and a pleasant walk. Plenty of parking.

Bel T

Beautiful nature at its best. So calming the waves. Nice places for picnic biking etc...

Sylwia Ewa Elsodany

Park looks very nice with the St. Laurent river. Its a lot to discover there. You need to be prepared that it might be much colder there because of the river.

Bruno Bonvini

Lovely place amazing afternoon with my little boy :-)

Maria Pachon

Great place to stay for a picnic or BBQ, this part of the river is impressive and amazing one side is calm and other has a lot of current. Really good for a walk, read a book or share with family and friends.

Steve Tessier

This Park has been beautifully preserved. It was inaccessible in the 1960s and as kids We would cross the old power dams to get to the island. The place is great today for a walk and picnic.

Ali H

So facinating place.

Daniel Blanchard

Great family time! Felt surreal Didn’t even think a place like that could exist in Montreal. Good job ???????? keep it up

George Chan

It was a beautiful day today and as always, it was very nice to take a walk in Des Rapides Park. If you ever have questions about the park or about any of the wildlife that is around, or even about what kind of fish ???? are in the river, there is usually someone that is working there that can answer your questions.

lyzette mary

Calming and peaceful especially when you watch the water flow.... u can also run along the water. It a sight to not be missed

Domingo Amarillo-Brillantes

A protected bird sanctuary and an excellent place for a stroll or picnic. Great for the kids and the entire family. It offers a unique view of nature within the city. The view is of the Lachine rapids are amazing. Great place for picture taking and bird watching. It's also a good place to fish. Easily accessible and there's ample parking and best it's situated along the bike path.

Very beautiful and calm place for a walk or picnic with your girl! The scenery is awesome and the cool breeze for the rapids is soothing... bring you camera...

The view of the river is wonderful; and the roaming geese and ducks ... from the road, on your car. Their poops stink; and you can not walk, sit or lay on the grass without stepping on it.

Mad Bee

A truly peaceful place

MoOsE Man

Another sweet nature spot in Montreal

Gregg Prevost

GEESE NO FEAR 9F HUMANS

Alexandru Steau

So relaxing especially in the morning. I am a photographer and I go here at least once a week to take photos of birds.

The beautiful park where the Island meets the river and you can walk along the mighty lachine rapids. There's abundant bird life including great blueherons, Canada geese, ducks, red wing black birds and more.

Abhinav Prakash

River is at arms distance. The flow and pace of rapids is both exhilarting and frightening

Sadegh Houshyar

Piece full and Calm.

Abubakar Choudhury

Amazing place to hang out with friends and family!

A P

Good variety, I seldom go there. You can find stuff that you cannot find in some other places. Good quality stuff! I would go there every time in the future. You should look at what they offer and choose what is best for you! Very nice place and I will go there again in the future, I like that is not far from where I live and it’s not very busy in the week-ends. I’m sure you’ll find it pleasant easy accessible and comforting.

Rohan David

Beautiful park with nice walking trail. Fantastic nature. Water bodies around are amazing. Can spot some birds like ducks and seagulls. View of the rapids are brilliant and soothing to just sit and relax in the park.

Good place to hangout, every where it shws open but when you visit it is closed. That's disappointment we had to face.. other than nature is calling you

George Rodrigues

Beautiful. Clean, well kept. Some picnic tables , benches, but not enough. Blvd. St Joseph, along the river has alot to expore. Just like old Montrel.

One of the prettiest parks around. Parking can be a bit difficult but definitely worth it. Watch out for geese poop!

GOLDIE Locks

Saw a beautiful Heron and two cormorants. My friend got pooped on ????. Water was nice.

Nathan Derrick Roy

Really good place to take some air and take a long walk on,only issue would be the eminence amount of Canadian Geese

It is a good place to take a rest and do some outdoor activities with friends and family. You also can fishing on the lake, but you need buy a fishing permit.

Maria Joao Sa

Beautiful park

Karim abou shousha

Amazing place

Ilir Orana

One of the most breathtaking parks in the city. Surrounded by water, and populated by countless species of birds, it's an ideal place for a relaxing stroll or a picnic.

Paul Giovannetti

The rushing water swirling around this island Park is hypnotic. No bicycles allowed in the park, but it's easy to walk the full length and the views are amazing. Easy to get free parking in the entrance or nearby on the street. This place is special, worth the trip and the walk. Electric wheelchairs and similar modes of transportation are permitted.

Bruno Ribeiro

I wish they had public restrooms. Otherwise this is a great place to hang out. Beautiful view!

Don Brown

A very very nice park, big, and clean, very special place.

C. Leigh

Gorgeous walk to see the rapids. Especially liked when you were in the centre and the water on one side was beautiful and calm with people paddle boarding, and you looked to the other side and the rapids were raging.

Jukebox Canada

Beautiful despite the cloudy conditions

bionik kaos

Absolutely great place

Elvira (ElviraMtl)

The best park! Must see if you are near Lasalle.

lawrence paxton

Great place to relax and enjoy lasalle

HUnewearl Sue

Beautiful Parks Canada bird sanctuary, be respectful towards the geese and you will get some very memorable photos and if you're lucky a very up close view of these beautiful birds. Land bridge leads over to the Machine Rapids where there are multiple benches and picnic tables, wonderful views of the rapids themselves as well as a week crafted and maintained park area with flowers and trees which enhances the experience. Definitely worth the trip and the time to see a wonderful gift from nature. The washrooms are located in a nearby public stage, but, they are a bit of a disaster sadly.

Pejvak

This place gives you small picture of the Niagara falls!

David Handfield

Great packrafting and amazing bird life.

advait kamble

Really peaceful place for a walk

DRA Channel

Casey Sidhu

Great parc, beautiful sights and wilderness. Well protected.

Kaveh Bakhtiyari

Nice ecological walking trail and watching the Rapids are amazing.

Michael -O- Adesanya

Pleasant ????

Gerry Gudzio

This is where I go for my morning walk every day. You’ll see plenty of geese with their young in the month of May and plenty of other wildlife. My only complaint is that I feel the borough is cutting down numerous trees for what I see as no reason. I could understand if a tree is dead so be it, but to cut down trees that appear healthy and strong and then just leave the stumps all over the place is despicable. Also, who gets to keep all that firewood? Hmm ... Another complaint I have is the over zealous cutting down of plants deemed to be invasive such as phragmites and mullein. To some these plants may be an eyesore but to others they are a thing of beauty. These plants beautify the shoreline but some people just can’t see that.

Andrew Ludwig

Very nice park. Great place for a walk and urban wildlife.

Francois Mcinnes

Very nice place to walk around. Nice view on the Lasalle rapids. Excellent place to do bird observation. Major improvements have been made to pathways and access during summer 2016. Free access

Such amazing connection with the nature inside this big town! Everything is breathtaking : vegetation, wildlife and the rapids.

Tabassum Malik

Love to spent time whenever I can

Lou

This is an amazing place with gorgeous view

MANDEEP KAUR

Very charm and quite place.

Lee

Been running around this place almost every day for the past 2 years. Beautiful. Municipality of LaSalle just needs to deal with the grotesque amount of goose poo.

Baby Delizzle

Always an amazing place to go, bring your friends and family of all ages. Bathrooms are easily located and there is a lot of nature/wild life to look at and enjoy. I would recommend that everyone who goes to these places remember to acknowledge the land and the native peoples who are the Stewart's(care-takers) of the land. We must always acknowledge the Kanien'keha:ka People's for what we all have today.

Elvin Simon

Fantastic and memorable place.

Brian Williams

Beautiful park hiding in Nuns Island.

최보연

The good place for rest, hiking, game , picnic.

Katherine Chighladze

Good place for fishing or just for walk.

Laurent

Super nice place to go walking around, plenty activities available like paddle boarding and surfing ! Great spot

Anna Ivanova

Absolutely beautiful year-round, park guides and nature activities on weekends in summer. Spectacular views of the rapids. Always interesting birds to watch, other animals (i.e. beavers, foxes) shier and harder to spot. The scientific fishing activity every Sunday at 13h00 in summer is really interesting to watch.

Levi Waldron

Lachine Rapids, the St. Lawrence River, surfers, public art installations. If you walk a ways upriver, the surfers are right by the shore, making for an entertaining place to stop.

Meysam Mirarab

It was a nice park to stop by and take a short walk around with kids.

H3FSilver

Nice place to walk and picnic in the summer

benjamin mcdonald

Amazing location. A fairy wonderland! Peace and tranquility on one side, chaos and the awesome power of nature on the other. One of Montreal greatest parks. The work by the maintenance team is A+

Ian MacDonald

This is an excellent park. Taking advantage of the site of a former hydroelectric dam, the rapids provide a really interesting backdrop to a bird sanctuary. Full of nice foot paths, with benches and hidden areas all over it's a great place to spend an afternoon bird-watching, reading a book, or just watching the water rush past.

Raed

Clean,Park, Free parking, lots of tables to eat at with your love ones & family and outdoor gatherings are permitted, as long as respecting the protocols. Very nice views. Beautiful place to take your kids. Beautiful place to walk, long walks, bicks not allowed inside

Lynn G

Peaceful and relaxing. Take your time and smell the roses. Stop and dip your feet in the cool lake. I actually got to see a Heron sitting on a rock with the cool rapid waters over it's feet, awaiting it's prey.

Hamid Mehrabi

Wow, it's great to feel nature within the city at this sanctuary, should bring small picnic basket after the visit seat adjacent the sanctuary on the provided picnic tables and look at it while munching.

Melika Clarke

Beautiful, great for walking and duck sighting!

Felix-Albert Desmangles

Wonderful outdoor wildlife refuge. Taking a walk and enjoying the wildlife and listening to the rapids nearby. Multiple walking and bike paths to get you around. Or bring a blanket and just sit on the grass and enjoy lunch.

Moshe Shak

This is a beautiful park where one can relax, walk, or enjoy the views. The birds are tame and will not run away. They will actually approach you. There are many of them long the paths and in the water. The quiet water and the rapids are breathtaking. At a temperature of 25C outside, the cool breeze feels wonderful. There are many beautiful places to sit down and enjoy. I did.

Marco Miguel

Signs to tell cyclist not to swipe past people walking. More cadet or officers to fine them.

Andrew Thompson

Beautiful picnic area, had icecream, and a submarine.

Alice Kulyn

It's amazing how many Montrealers have never ventured to one of the most beautiful spots on the island. Bike and walking paths along the river and rapids. Rafting, canoeing, kayaking... just superb access to the river, with multiple free places to park if you arrive by car. Many picnic tables and chairs.

Tim Suleyman

Excellent place to celebrate birthdays, to have open air fitness time, to come for a bbq, bicycle ride, or just for a stroll. Beautiful park.

Had to keep my eyes on the ground, lots of geese poo, but not much we can do about that. Wish they would open the gate to go down to the end.

Mardy Leibovitch

Very peaceful place to walk and take pictures of the birds!

Georges Younes

Spectacular park 45 minutes from downtown Montreal but easily accessible with public transportation. Take the metro to the de l'eglise station then bus 58 West. The sound of the water of the rapids is worth the trip. It made me think of adventure films.

Rehana Patel

Such a peaceful place to go for walks and bike rides.

JR gaspard

Take a bicycle ride to Parc des Rapides if you live in the area.

Kevin Collie

Such a beautiful place. Great for a walk and to appreciate nature. It is a nature reserve so keep in mind it's made for a calmer visit. The staff working there are the absolute worst people. One of the staff made racists comments to belittle me (just because I was unaware that you're not allowed to approach the water). This is the only reason I did not give it 5 stars.

Hubert Levassseur

Feel the power of the water with amazing natural areas

Marlene Demers

Had a lovely walk down by the river. Lots of areas to stop and just relax and take in the view.

Vidisha Pandya

Alexander Gnatenko

Bird sanctuary with stunning views to St Laurent river and Montreal Downtown. Rowrs of water is very relaxing Great place overall. Parking is limited though

Arantxa Santos

Nice place to go for a walk. Free parking available, but very small, ample enough parking on the street. Narrow trails and people not wearing masks (since it's outdoors) and though there are signs to keep to the right throughout the entire park, some might find it uncomfortable (covid-wise). Went on a weekday, I imagine it's a lot fuller on weekends. Lots of spaced-out picnic tables. Lots of ducks (and their feces all over). There's something about watching the rapids that's so peaceful.

Shanice E.

best spot in MTL

Jason S

The park is beautiful, clean and spacious. This weekend they hosted a Greek festival including food, drinks and entertainment. It was great and worth the trip. Parking gets a bit tricky durng special events so be prepared to park and walk.

Candace Reid

My absolute favorite place to find peace after a rough day. Tranquil with the sounds of the rushing water.

this is my secret and favourite place in Montréal. i have watched it grow up, from when the first plantings were made. they are now mature and this wee spit of land that harbours all kinds of birds, lovely plantings and beautifully designed, wave-form tables and benches is a delight in every season.

Mandip Jagdeo

Amazing views and breezing winds :)

I find this place a very beautiful environment to visit and enjoy the scenery. What is special about this area is that you can see the fast waves of the Saint Lawrence River, you can also find many types of migrating birds. The area has free parking and is easy to access. A must visit for everyone.

Good place to relax

Destination Nature

It's amazing - the water, the nature, the birds. One of our favorite places to go in Montreal

Victoria V.

The park is very nice, and has some nice fauna and flora. And even though it is a lovely place, it is only for a walk or a picnic, not much else to do. And, unfortunately, it is not a safe place because anyone can fall into the rapids.

Pedro l'amoroso

It's one of my favourite nature parks. It is really nice with all the plants & wildlife in the park. Fantastic place for water pics. Rapids and quiet water and lots of species of birds. Just an all around beautiful place.

Glenn Phillips

Always so beautiful to see and hear the rapids! A great place to be, any time of year.

Graeme Salmon

Great place to stroll around - just go with someone you don't want to talk to, because if you open your mouth, it'll fill with tiny flying insects. Just read the cool plaques and aee the remnants of the old hydro plant. Super cool.

Tanusree Dey

Very peaceful. Good for bike lovers. Can enjoy long walks as well.

Gail Thompson

We have such a beautiful area by the water and yet people ruin it by littering and dropping cigarette butts everywhere even though there are garbage cans all over the place. Pick up after yourselves people!

Johnathan Jones

Very nice park not much for kids to do but great place for date or photos defs visit they have free parking

Maz S

Fun & relaxing place to visit with the family! The rapids are amazing to see. Has a walking path.

1st time walking here since its been fixed up with paths. Very peaceful, benches to rest and enjoy the water and scenery. Beautiful sounds of nature. Hope to go back soon.

A.J. Prasanth

One of the best parks in Verdun. Verdun Beach is overrated but this in my opinion is underrated. Waves are charming and beautiful. Must see if you live in Montreal.

Ghislain Godin

Great park for a nice walk. Had a few hours to kill and came over here to explore a little. Was pleased to find this nice park on the banks of the river. Plenty of paths to explore and lots of markers with information on the history of the area. It is also a conservation area protecting many bird species that migrate or live here all year round.
