The overall lumières polaire event set up was ok. The ice was good enough to skate on, the trails can be longer or bigger to accommodate both ice biker / skater. We were there for DJ Latina night; however the music was horrible, lots of inappropriate words. Please filter those Spanish words so it’s kid-friendly environment. Parking station was very dark, it will be nice to install lightings for pedestrians safety. If you are not at Catherine resident , the fee is 12$ for parking ( pay with cards)

Biked here from Olympic stadium via Saint Laurant path, its a beautiful park with amazing birds and little critters, a smooth paved bike path that runs though entire park, at the base there is a man made beach with resto on site. The park has the best restaurant that makes homemade sorbet that's presented inside of a grapefruit and the best poke bowl, I've never had better and fresher ingredients like they do, simply a gem. I recommend if you come by car to bring your bikes to tour through grounds, it's a lot of work if you walk to the restaurant, bike let's you visit all the nice scenic spots. They don't allow camp fires at any point during season, they provide unique cabins / lodgings throughout the site. They have restrooms located close to the entry and inside the Bamboo Cafe/ resto with a drinking fountain in the basement / main floor.

Nice, quiet, big park on the side of Saint Laurent river. They have also a swimming place with water not too deep for little kids. They have a camping site and you have nice views of Rapids and Montreal city. There is a little restaurant on site. Accessible by car or bike path from Champlain Esplanade.Very relaxing, nice for long walks.

Had a great time with our toddler during the Lost Kingdoms Jurassic event ! I'd suggest not to forget a stroller and water bottles, as it takes quite some time to walk through the park. The Cafe has a great selection of meals.
