mille-iles river park

Mille-Iles River Park is mainly composed of a series of islands on the river between Laval and the North Shore. With a growing interest in kayaking, my wife and I went there this morning (12 minutes from our home and had a great time paddling the calm waters amidst the islands in the company of ducks, geese and other kayak and canoe enthusiasts. Rental fees for watercraft (kayaks, canoes, peddle boats, rowboats, etc) are quite reasonable and there are no parking or admission fees. As an added bonus, you get to see Celine Dion's mansion, the only property on Gagnon Island (currently on the market for $25.5M for anyone looking for a castle).We loved our time there this morning and will return as often as we can while kayaking is in season.

I go there a few time during the summer rent a canoe and paddle around the island - bring a picknick and enjoy the place

I enjoyed the tranquility and pathways on the islands to stretch our legs after canoeing for a time.

Usually I visit this park in Summer (rent kanoe or kayak) and in Winter (skating). First time I was there in Spring. Of course, not too many activities, but so quite and so relaxing just walk and sit on the bench. I will try to visit it more offen

A peaceful oasis. Benches to sit and look at the river flowing by, or slowly walk along the paths.

Always a nice place to visit. In winter, you can walk, ski, skate and slide in the park. In summer, rent a canoe and go around the islands. You can even stop and walk on some, and learn about plants, animals and birds around.

amazing place just to relaxe fish or rent a canot and explore the nature you will enjoy be surrounded in this nice place

Very relaxing summer day out. Can rent kayaks and enjoy the water.

I used to bring my kids here skating all the time. toboggan run and horse rides available.

This is a very nice park along the river; you can rent small boats/canoe/kayak and explore hundreds of islands on this calm river; you will encounter a lot of wildlife, including large birds, turtles, ducks, fish, eel, etc;I recommend the "Bayou", a place to navigate in a kayak/canoe in a swamp-like atmosphere, without the aligators...

Une multitudes d'activités vous attendent cet hiver : patin, glissade, pêche blanche, ski de fond, raquette... Merci de partager votre expérience au Parc et au plaisir de vous revoir !

Il est impressionnant de découvrir la richesse patrimoniale et culturelle du pittoresque vieux Sainte-Rose. Merci d'avoir pris le temps de partager votre expérience au Parc et au plaisir de vous revoir l'été prochain!

J'ai été faire du kayak double avec mon amoureux sur cette rivière. Les payasages étaient magnifiques. Nous avons même vu des fleurs de nénuphars. Le seul problème que nous avons relevé est l'absence de casier pour laisser nos objets personnels. Il s'agit de prix bien raisonnable pour la location d'embarcation. Par contre, il n'est pas possible de se baigner dans cete rivière puisqu'il y a (extrêment) beaucoup d'algues ce qui a été désagréable à quelques moments puisque nous étions pris dans les algues.

a faire absolument,visite en bateau,voir plusieurs petites Iles sur une Ile, en plus elles sont habités ce qui donne l'envie dans acheter une mais cela doit valoir une fortune.Une merveille.

J' ai bien aime la tranquillite sur la riviere, pas de gros courants tres facil de profite de cette belle nature !!!
