This is a great park in the middle of Montreal. Fresh air, nature, exercise. Priceless. If you don't feel like walking up the mountain, and then walking back down, you can take a Metro bus to the top, and then walk back down.

We walked through Mont Royal park on a Saturday morning. It was a nice way to spend a warm lazy morning. There were many places to sit with a book, picnic or people watch. More

Nice open place. Easy to get to. Beautiful views of Montreal from the top. Nice photo spots. I imagine this would a be pretty popular place for picnics in summer. More

Hiked up to mont royal with my 13yr old daughter. We walked through the McGill campus and up rue peel. We accessed the park by taking the stairs. Very good exercise! We brought a picnic with us which we enjoyed on the terrace overlooking the city. Spectacular views! The chalet was useful as it contained washrooms and a gift shop.... More

We drove up here on our last day - it had great views of the city. Would probably be amazing later in the Spring (we were there in April - the review only went back to June, didn't let us select April) or in the Fall More
