Pretty busy place when i went but definitely still a nice escape for people who live in the city. Free parking for 5 hours next to the baseball diamond which is nice. The nice guy in the greenhouse was eager to tell me about the types of birds and koi fish. Beautiful willow trees and pond area as well

The park in the summer looks like something out of a Monet painting and in the winter, is a quiet, magical destination to go for a walk and play. Parking is free for Carte Avantage holders in Laval, but there are also tons of street parking on location. It's a wonderful community meeting point and it's gratefully free! There is also a playground for children, a small farm area where you can see animals, and an abundance of picnic tables in the summer.

One of the few places I enjoyed the most, it had many fun activities. You have the choice of going ice skating, where you have to bring your own skates. There is also a small farm where you can see alot of animals including pigs, rabbits, cats, horses, peacocks, and cows. There are also trails to go around the whole park aswell as a cross country skiing trail.

Beautiful park for family.

Angel Gebs

This is a spacious park that is full of nice views. It is a great place for families and kids to gather. There are picnic areas. There is a little farm. There are small water activities. Overall, it has a calm and relaxing atmosphere to it.

Claudia

Superbly serene among spectacular colors. This mini botanical park does not disappoint. Try going a little earlier than most and the weekday is best if that's suitable. Parking can usually be found without too much trouble.

Cosmin Jelea

Great place to visit any time of year. Lots of activities and even festivals in the summer. In winter the fairly large pond turns into a skating rink. Always a good time here, whether you bring the kids or not. There's a fun little village up the hill and even an animal farm.

Kevin Yo

It's spacious, wide and there's many things to explore. I enjoyed skiing around. Would go back.

Suhana Dharshan

Very beautiful place.... my kids enjoyed alot

Richard Reynoso

It was lovely. Had a great time with the family at the pool.

Celine Ho

During covid-19, water equipment rental not available and playground section is surrounded by tall metal fences. There is a hand washing station before going into the play area and watched by 2 people. We went for an evening picnic with friends by the water. Parc is very well maintained with beautiful flowers and decoration and can still see some of the farm animals.

Martin Wiedenhoff

Christmas ???? market today was amazing with hot chocolate, Syrian food, wine, churros, etc Much better than Atwater where you queue for entrance and have to look for parking. Lovely staff and gear DJ

Abdul Hakkeem

It's good park for all ages. Having activities like train ride, kayak, pedal boat, pony carousel, cycling path, flower park, etc. Parking available. Benches are there for having lunch. Really a good spot for a picnic.

Jovanne Millanes

What a beautiful nature. It's still in a developing phase but, you have to see it for yourself.

Yunpeng Fan

Parc is bigger than what I thought. Lots of married people decide to take pictures here. Flowers, Animals and the lake. Nice place either for a walk or family sport here. Don't forget to get a Laval Advantage card before you go there. You can save some money on parking.

MARIA THERESA D'ALMEIDA GOUVEIA

Only one complaint of this place is when employees get around in their carts they bring all the dust up and it's very unpleasant. Saw a lady pushing her baby carriage and the dust went all in the stroller. We get all the dust in our food in the picnic area. Better stay away from those paths.

Terry Helliker

We went for the 5k Candy Run. It was our first visit here and it won’t be our last. Such a beautifully well maintained area. A great spot for picture taking too! Ample parking and lots to do. Grab your camera and go spend some time at Centre de la Nature. It’s worth it!

Yucel Salimoglu

I really recommend this place to everyone who likes nature. Very close to Montreal Nord. If you have Laval card you can parc your car free. Must see place. Excellent for children.

Alexandrine Groleau

A few rude employees but the nature was wow lots of different things to do thanks will visit again

PIX XX

Great place in Laval to visit with family... Ok there is a petting zoo... Pigs horses chickens goats bunnies.. etc .. there are ponies to ride and a train that runs around the park you can get on for free. There is a big pond full of coy fish and you can also get canoes and paddle boats. Little restaurant fir food. Lots of open space and flowers... Very nicely maintained. Parking is 7$.. but you can find parking for free on the side streets.

Li Ba

Beautiful park, you really enjoy nature in different ways at this park!

Nour Alsafadi

Very nice park , There is a small children train, tickets are 4$ per person. Also there is a small lake with lots of fish and you can get kayak cost 7$ for 25 min . And there is a swimming pool and water park. One problem you have to park your car far away from the park if you are not resident of laval

Monica Oliveira

Beautiful gardens and numerous activities for the family

Camelia K

I don't know where to start on this review! This place is a community gem on the Laval island. You'll have a spectacular walk through this park, it's well maintained and the various gardens are carefully curated. The canteen is super clean with friendly staff and a calming view. The train staff goes above and beyond to make you smile. The animals are a joy to visit. Everything here, including activities and food, won't break your bank either. We look forward to see what winter activities are in store! Definitely worth multiple visits

Subodh Srivastava

Very beautiful and huge park with places to sit and relax. There is a kids park for them to unwind. Water bodies are beautiful and you can watch variety of fishes in there. For comparison sake, it’s equally big as La Fontaine park in Montréal.

Sharona Ramakaev-Owers

I love this park. So many things to do alone, with a partner or as a family. You can rent a boat, a canoe and enjoy some time in the water. You can go for walk, let the kids play in the playground or just have a coffee or a soft drink. There is an animal farm and a little train ride($). It's clean and spacious.

Dims

Booking in advance for a 2hr time slot is a great idea for all activities in Laval. Long line ups are no longer an issue. Was a fun 2 hrs, although renting tubes is ridiculous, this should be free as is in Boisbriand.

Arctic Hawk

Nice place for a long walk. Plenty of picnic tables to stop & rest a bit. Everyone is friendly! Certain parking lots are reserved for.Laval citizens only. As a non citizen, had to park on the street. No big deal.

Ed Kassem

Very nice park. It has a big pool, lots of parking space and not a lot of bugs. Some areas are restricted for bicycles. Even kiddie bikes aren't allowed. Good place to hang out. Not sure if it's because of the pandemic but no stores or cafeterias to buy a bottle of water.

Amanda Joy

We went for the Christmas market! Was well! Had a lot of fun. Wish there was more artisans and food options. But overall great experience !

Mercedes Azurdia

Perfect to go with your family!

P A

Wow! Such a pretty and diverse park! Has everything from picnic areas, animal pens, many beautiful and well kept flower gardens, and lakes where you can rent a paddle boat or canoe for 25 minutes at a time. Dog friendly! So pretty, great place for pictures!

Mike Deseve

Beautiful place for a walk or an afternoon with the kids.

Julie Baum

My granddaughter loved the play area. We didn't get much further than that. I was a little disheartened about the parking. I know the idea is to get more local people to park there cars there but there was only on the street parking for non residents which I think is wrong. There are two car parks that I saw both for residents and so we parked on the street. This is the closest nature reserve to where we live.

Mav O

This such a beautiful place to spend spend few hours with your kids. I go back every summer. I highly recommend it if you're a nature lover.

Primrose Fernandes

Really good parc. So many different areas, but can get crowded at the common spots. Best place is the water side watching the fish!

Calin Giurgiu

A very nice park to stroll around. It has a little bit of everything: lake, forest, flower gardens, a small playground for kids. There is also parking.

Linda M

Beautiful place for family and friends, beautiful spot for wedding pictures, they also have farm animals a lake that doubles as a rink in winter. Love it there

Sirazum Munira

Beautiful place! The most beatiful and colorful park in Montreal in Summer! Full of different types of colorful and extravagant flowers! Eye soothing ????

Leonard Xu

Dont like the fact that you have to pay 8$ if not resident of Laval, but it is not unreasonnable. Boat and train-train (4$ per person) is pretty cheap. Very nice to come chill out with family and kids. Very nice place to walk around!

Mona Osman

Very nice and clean place to visit and enjoy

J-R L

Gorgeous site where you can walk, jog or run. You can also have pique niques and/or enjoy the nature of nature!!! Accessible for everyone! Family friendly!

Frederique Daoust

This place is simply amazing... It's so beautiful and the staff is lovely... Animals are adorable and the goats are so well trained. I adore the fact that you could pet different animal in their habitats. In addition, the flowers and the bridge were amazing! Beautiful place to go in family or with your partner!

Peter Giser

The best public park in the Montreal/Laval area. Large walking areas, more than one pond, flowers to rival the botanical gardens, and family friendly. Activities include many animals and a mini-barn, a very nice kids' playground, gardens with seating, some pop up stands, and during Halloween time special displays and activities.

Oleksandra Kurash

Normally we love the park, however, because of the restrictions, some of the activities are non-available at this time, and others require registration on the site and reservation. Make sure to consult the website before going

Dee

I loved this place. So many things to see. Great views. Clean park. Amazing. A must place to visit

Lola M

Beautiful park with a lake. Lots of decorations and well maintained grounds. They have petting farm, ice cream place, you can rent canoes, playgrounds for kids. We went there over Thanksgiving weekend and it was packed. People celebrating Birthdays, we saw 4 weddings, taking their photos there. I would recommend going on a less busy day.

Tanya

Great park for the whole family. Beautiful area to walk, bike or have a picnic. There is a playground for children, beautiful outdoor gardens, a skate park, greenhouse, a farm with animals, a cute village of tiny buildings (church, barber etc..) a small lake with kayak rentals, or skating in winter. There are a few activities that cost about $4 such as train rides and pony rides for kids.There really is something to keep the whole family busy. I love this park and go in every season. Parking is $7. If you go during the week there is sometimes street parking available, usually difficult to find on weekends. *Tip: If you are a Laval resident and have the Carte Avantages Laval parking is free when you show your card, it also gives you a $2 discount on equipment rentals

Niranjana Sellathurai

The most epic I have ever seen before in my life. Great scenery, animals to see and boating in the lake with canoes and paddle boards. Visit it!

Sajeda Samir

My family and I always go for birthday parties and so do my friends, it's a beautiful park

Rami Al-Batal

Nice park spend a few hours in. Decent playground for kids to enjoy. Lots of nice views and some rescue animals for the kids to see. If you dont live in Laval, then expect to not gain access to parking lot and to be directed to use street parking.

WarriorGag Sawggg

Beautiful park to hang out with family and friends

Jareth Ontiveros

incredible place to spend the day with the family and rest

Mustafizur Rahman

Amazing place to spend on a beautiful day with your family. There's a small farm (free visit), a great walking path, a nice lake where you can rent boat, kayak, etc, at reasonable price. There are picnic tables (no BBQ), and a huge park for kids with padded ground for safety. Everything you can ask for to take your kids! Enjoy!

Gabrielle Pr

Its nice, easy to park (free for people of Laval, easy on street for others), has toilets open even during COVID. Can get busy, but calm most evenings. Has animals and a lot of flowers. Can distract the kids for a couple hours. FREE.

Marie-Belle Ayoub

Great place to have a picnic or have a nice walk. Family friendly. We did some kayaking which was nice. The views are great, the parcs are big, the kids loved it. There's a little farm where you can see some animals (cows, pigs, chicken....). Poney riding was also available. If you have the card "avantage laval" you have free parking and discounts on some stuff. Will defenitly go back.
