In the Montérégie region, the Récré-O-Parc is the best place where to observe birds, because this park is a true refuge for migratory birds. Its great location on the banks of the St. Lawrence River is another reason for you to visit this enchanting site. From an observation point, you will even have the chance to admire the Lachine Rapids and the locks nearby.
The seven kilometres of asphalted paths allow you to easily walk around the park. On your bike or by foot, you will have the pleasure to observe the surrounding nature. The park is even equipped with a peaceful place where fishers can cast their fishing lines. You only need to bring the baits. Put on your hiking boots, bring your picnic and your binoculars and come spend a few hours in this beautiful park.
