Same hour: saw red bellied woodpecker, a male mallard duck and his wife swimming in the semi frozen swamps, a hawk, a squirrel thinking he's a flying squirrel. Wild-life bio students or zoology students would have a field trip if they visited this place, literally. I really was ...

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.

We go there sometimes to have supper by the river and then take a walk in the reserve. It is a very well maintained quite and peaceful place where one can observe birds, deer and other wild animals. We always feel relaxed and rejuvenated after a visit there.

Beautiful island, very nice to take a stroll around it. Pictures in a sunny day are stunning. If you go to the park the trail is long and beautiful full of birds. Very nice family outing for a weekend. I'll come back mid autumn to see the changing colors 😎

The best place ever to do paddling and exploration. You can rent a canoe for a duration of 3 hours which wasn't enough for me given the huge area or you rent it for the day. I like it.
