Trail description
Parc Angrignon is a large urban park in Montréal's Sud-Ouest borough. The City of Montréal gives it 97 hectares of land made up of rich forest, clearings and a lake that stretches 1.1 km. It also has children's play areas and a dog park.
Trails and distances
The City of Montréal publishes no walking-trail length for Parc Angrignon, and no elevation gain or visit duration either. The only distances it publishes are for winter circuits: a 3 km snowshoe trail (easy level), a touring ski trail with classic-stride routes of 3 km and 4.6 km, and a skate-ski route of 2.9 km. According to the City, some trails are set aside for walking and snowshoeing, others for cross-country skiing, and visitors should stay on the marked trails.
Access and parking
The park is at 3400 boulevard des Trinitaires. The City of Montréal does not indicate opening hours for the park ("Non indiqué"). The interim reception pavilion (pavillon d'accueil transitoire) and the Forest Pavilion (pavillon de la Forêt), at the same address, are open from 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Monday to Thursday and from 7 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Friday to Sunday.
The park's page lists both "Stationnement ($)" (paid parking) and "Stationnement gratuit" (free parking), without saying where each is or what the rate is. According to the STM, the Angrignon metro station (Line 1 - Green) has its entrance at 3500 boulevard des Trinitaires.
Dogs and rules to know
According to the City of Montréal, dogs are welcome in parks as long as they are on a leash and stay on the paths, grassy areas or parking lots; owners must pick up after them. Parc Angrignon also has a dog park, reserved for residents of the Sud-Ouest borough: the dog must have its licence tag, and the dog park is open from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. every day.
Drinking alcohol is prohibited in parks, except in picnic areas during a meal or with a permit for a special event. Open-air fires are prohibited.
Facilities
The City lists picnic areas, barbecues, drinking fountains, play modules for children and for toddlers, and toilets. Heated toilets are available at the Forest Pavilion (pavillon de la Forêt); the interim reception pavilion, also heated, has toilets and a common area to warm up before winter sports. The Pond Pavilion and the former winter-quarters pavilions are still under construction, with portable toilets nearby. The park once housed a small farm and then a children's play fort, both now closed.
In winter
According to the City, it is an ideal place for snowshoeing, cross-country skiing or skate skiing. Sledding, touring ski and snowshoe trails are offered according to the season: the status of each facility is posted on the park's page.
