Boucherville Islands National Park

We've camped here, biked, kayaked over the years, I tried to rent a kayak the other day but the rental place is closed during the week, only opened on weekends and holidays, so I biked for a bit but there is not much to do unless you have plans, biking around the island takes like 20 minutes. I came by ferry from the main land, it's $3.25 each way. Camping is great, it's a very nice parc with lovely sounds of nature, great amenities, a boutique and snack store on the main island. You need a buggy to bring your stuff over to the site, cars are not permitted.

Beautiful tranquil park which I r joyed hiking in! The various hiking trails usually take about 1-2 hours. Very easy walking and no bugs! Huge bike trails as well! Will return to go Kayaking! Rentals possible on site

Beautiful place to go for a walk, alone, in groups, or with your dog. I went on April 07, and all washrooms were still closed (only the one in the visitor's center was open), which is the reason why I am giving four stars. It is pretty hard waking for 4, 5 km without a washroom or a place to refill your water bottle. It was my first time there and I will be more prepared next time for sure. Anyway, I enjoyed my time there. Probably the best time to go is in the fall when all the trees are changing colors. Truly, I will be back.

Near Montreal, this national park offers good hiking trails and nice views. There is a rental place for kayaks and water sports, but be aware that the last rental is at 3:45 PM. We waited in line for 40 minutes, and despite reaching the front at around 3:50 PM, the staff refused to rent to us, claiming they were closed. It looked like the staff started closing sooner and didn't serve others. Although there are indoor bathrooms and a small shop, the bathroom closed at 5 PM, which was inconvenient. Overall, the hike was pleasant, but the staff didn't seem helpful.

We hiked for about 90 minutes around the perimeter of the island. It’s such a blessing to have this natural area in the middle of the city! It is an easy hike, well maintained trail with lots if trees, marsh and river to see. You will see tons of deer and groundhogs. If you love the nature, do not feed the wildlife!

The national park is not far away and nice that all islands are connected! We visited by bike two of the islands and saw different wildlife in the water and on land. It was quiet and relaxing and lots of space ! The trails were well maintained and not full of people or bikes.

Wow, I loved it, it's really beautiful à I did the longer bike route which I rented from the main office and it was very good. I advise you to buy the tickets online before going, and reserve the place for the bicycles or Kayak too.

Beautiful park, nice paths and scenic walks, I went with my two year old and bright a hiking carrier and backpack and it was perfect, there were parks and a splash pad! It was a great day! I also recommend using their Avenza app because their paper map can be a bit confusing but the app actually shows you where you are live like a gpa and you know exactly where you’re heading and how to get there. 😁

First of all the ferry to the Boucherville Islands park is ridiculously cute and I love it. It's a small bike ferry, a short ride on the water over to a peaceful haven blowing with tall grasses. We biked here from out in Mile End so after a hectic ride through the city, arriving on this island was heaven. It's deeply peaceful and really really fun to ride around on, amazing bike paths rolling through quiet trees and protected, diverse nature. People are here fishing, walking, kayaking and generally relaxing. I didn't find any earth shattering views or anything like that, but a real sense of peace really close to the heart of the city.

I went to the parc with friends on a day where the entrance was free. In the winter this parc isn't the most fabulous. I've been in the warmer months and there was much more to see and do. Great parc to spot Virginia deer.

Came to play frisbee golf. A great free course in a beautiful parc. Free parking too which is a bonus.

Montreal's best kept National Park secret only minutes away from downtown Montreal and worth the trip. Park is accessible by ferry or car, and once there you can rent bikes or kayaks. Bike rentals are about $30 so if you bring your own, you will save some money. Check Park Entrance Fee, but I think it was about $8 per person and totally worth it. They do an excellent job of maintaining this park. Absolutely beautiful setting that one cannot believe is only minutes from Montreal. You can bike between the 3 islands, and there are beautiful quiet spots en route to picnic, or just relax in the hammocks. Their new welcome center is beautiful and a great stop for food, water, bathrooms or just AC. The bike and kayak rental is directly across. My only complaint here and at most national parks is WHY a country that loves the outdoors and animals - does not allow us to bring our dogs with us on the hike.
