Can you have picnic in Montreal?

Consider strolling through the Botanical Garden before or after your meal, but not during—picnics aren’t allowed there except in ‘designated spaces’. If you’re the sporting type, end your day by whacking a few at the Centre D’Exercice De Golf Sports Montréal, a golf driving range.

Can I BBQ in Mont Royal?

Whether for a party, a wedding, a picnic or a barbecue, it is not possible to reserve, block off or restrict access to any outdoor space in Mount Royal Park.

Is Lachine Canal clean?

The European explorers sought to find a route from New France to the Western Sea, and from there to China and hence auspiciously the region where the canal was built was named Lachine. Due to the continuous disposal of industrial waste, the canal contains harmful substances, though the water quality is said to be good.

The national historic site is open every day from sunrise to 11 p.m.
