Marshlands with many secrets

This picturesque park, which looks out over the Lac des Deux Montagnes, is home to swamps surrounded by stands of maple and cedar. Explore the various trails of this star-shaped park by bicycle or on foot. From the winding walkway over the park's great swamp, you can see beavers, turtles and ducks. In the summer, you can go canoeing or swimming. In the spring and fall, bring along some binoculars to watch migrating geese fly overhead or congregate along the lake's edge. The peaceful forest is an excellent setting for hiking and cross-country skiing in the winter.

Environmental science activities are offered by the Groupe uni des éducateurs-naturalistes et professionnels en environnement (GUEPE).
