A Watery Wonder
Forty-two kilometres
long and brimming with islands striding gracefully amidst shoreline splendour in Laval, Quebec, Parc de la Rivière-des-Milles-Iles is a cornucopia of
natural beauty with over 95 islands.
Imagine paddling over calm waters
while pondering the inspiring scenes surrounding you. No more looking at it from
afar while yearning to glide between islands. You can even dock on three of them and stroll
around. What a unique real-life experience!
Your voyageur spirit will immediately kick in. Explore it all!
Canoes and kayaks to rent

Paddles can vary in weight and size, so be sure to ask Josée to hand you a few to try them out before going.

Map in hand
I charted my route, suggested by Camille at the front desk.
The effects of this tranquil haven were palpable. Relaxation and rejuvenation were instant. And to think that noisy Montreal was only 25 minutes away! The more I paddled, the more I was delighted by unexpected surprises.
Milles Iles’ Understated Wow Factor
There’s something primeval about getting close up to nature, and what I loved about the park is the fact that water, trees and animals become your companions as you wander into the deep. It’s totally magical here.

After all that paddling, I ate at the picnic area
I took about 40 photos but best to leave some surprises for you.
