Nico Pitney: "Island park, a haven near downtown packed w/ trails and surrounded by the St. Lawrence. Go off-road and explore by the waterside, and you’ll discover some truly special spots well suited to picnics."
Afi Yellow-Duke: Was here for Osheaga last summer. Beautiful park and a fairly well-organized festival. The train takes you right to the park, but be mindful of the crowds at the end of the day!
