In the image of the Plateau

For more than 100 years, this stylish urban park, an intricate part of Montréal’s cultural life, has represented the Plateau’s heritage. Surrounded by Victorian buildings, the park is home to immense trees, picturesque spots, works of public art and two ponds connected by a waterfall.

From the first days of spring, the park’s outdoor theatre, the Théâtre de Verdure, offers a free and highly diverse set of performances in music, dance and film. In the winter, the park is used for a number of outdoor activities, including skating on one of its ponds. It is also a gathering point for cyclists. Its two bike paths form the starting point for Québec’s bike network, the Route verte.
