Trail description
Parc Bernard-Landry is in Laval-des-Rapides, in Laval. It used to be called Parc des Prairies: Laval city council confirmed the name change, according to Radio-Canada (2019), to recognize the contribution of former Quebec premier Bernard Landry to the development of Laval. The Commission de toponymie du Québec lists "parc des Prairies" among the place's former official names.
The park
In 2019, Radio-Canada described a natural green space of 30 hectares, open year-round, that welcomes close to 50,000 visitors a year. Tourisme Laval presents it as a park with a pond, walking paths and a bike path, where you can picnic, and which hosts several events. Tourisme Laval does not publish a distance for the park's walking paths; the length and level shown here are unconfirmed estimates.
