Why choose a trail at Pôle Des Rapides?

The paths of the network go through the Lachine borough, LaSalle and Verdun, and cross several historical and natural attractions. Its largest segment is the Piste des Berges along the basin of La Prairie, Saint-Laurent, Lachine Rapids and Lake Saint-Louis, and from where one can see the Fleming Mill, from a height of 13 meters, built in 1816. Restored in 1991, it is the only mill in Anglo-Saxon type of wind in Quebec. We will see the Verdun greenhouses, garden Citizen and historic houses, the oldest complete building of the island of Montreal, La Maison Sunrise Lemoyne, dating from the sixteenth century.

It's Nice and calm place in the busy Montreal City. Here you can see and do some adventure sport like river rafting on tremendous rapids on saint Lawrence river. Park it self is good for family picnic and get to gether. You can also enjoy bicycle ride with your kids and your friends. If you want to do some fishing then also you can do here. In short it's a full family enjoyment and weekend place. So visit and feel relaxed on your busy life.

The rushing water swirling around this island Park is hypnotic. No bicycles allowed in the park, but it's easy to walk the full length and the views are amazing. Easy to get free parking in the entrance or nearby on the street. This place is special, worth the trip and the walk. Electric wheelchairs and similar modes of transportation are permitted.

A hidden gem right in the city! The trails are beautiful to walk and watching the rapids speed by is both calming and invigorating. We go there everytime we visit the city in the summer.

Great place for activities! Whether for a walk, a run, a bike ride or just to chill, this is a great place near the Lachine rapids. Ducks, geese and if you are lucky a little aquatic mammal
