Parks & Nature
The jewel of Montreal’s city parks is, without question, Mount Royal. This 200-hectare park occupies part of the mountain that lies in the midst of Montreal island and includes the highest spot in the city. Designed by the same architect who designed Central Park in NYC - Frederick Olmstead. The lookout facing over downtown towards the river was first built in 1906 and is now officially known as the Belvédère Kondiaronk, named for the Huron chief who signed a major peace accord with the French regime in 1701. A second lookout, a famous trysting spot, faces eastward toward the Olympic Stadium.

Less than 8 minutes walk from the residence, an ideal place to picnic, stroll, Rollerblade, or bike (my personal preference). The park has huge suntanning chairs, indoor washroom facilities, indoor and outdoor water fountains, picnic tables, and separate walk/bike paths. It is a 3km loop with 2 direction bike lanes. A celebration of St Jean Baptiste holiday (June 24th) can be seen here in the evening.
