Why choose a trail at Parc Du Grand-coteau - Pistes Et Sentiers Émilie-mondor?
A true natural paradise in the heart of Mascouche, the Grand Coteau Park is a vast urban park that includes 23 kilometers of wooded walking trails.
In addition to the beautiful meandering streams, you can also see beautiful specimens of American beech, white pine and eastern hemlock.
This is a sparse old-growth forest, where the dense canopy of trees prevents sunlight from reaching the ground and the capacity for regeneration is very low.
Old-growth forests allow for a liberating feeling when walking through them as opposed to young forests where you feel oppressed by the density of vegetation. Seeing into the distance is a real treat for the eyes!
This landscape is a unique environment that allows us to describe the experience as rare but above all unique.
Access price:
Admission to Grand Coteau Park is free. As such, the park is open throughout the entire year.
