A meander of wood that will take you to the top of the trees to a platform that dominates the forest. At a height of 40m, you will have a panoramic view of all the Laurentians. At the foot of this site accessible by stroller, a very nice park where to picnic. The site is paid for, but we recommend the annual pass which is profitable in just two visits. What to discover the Laurentides every season. In summer, there are even opening evenings fto enjoy shooting stars and northern lights away from thebig citu lights
The view from sentier des Cimes
Departure from Lake Street, Val David.
Val David Regional Park offers several hiking loops but one is particularly suitable for children. The Mount King loop through Lake Street takes you to the top of the Mount King cliff, from which you have a magnificent panorama of the lake in the heart just below. Not accessible to strollers, the ride is still easy in baby carrier and lasts only 1h30. Enough to make proud the small hikers who have reached the summit without big difficulties. It is worth noting a small stream passage for which you have to pass some rocks. You will have to give the hand to the smaller ones. Entry is $9 per
adult.
Le Mont King
4672 Chem. de la Doncaster, Sainte-Adèle, QC J8B 1R8
Accessible to strollers, this easy path runs along the river and offers beautiful views of the waterfalls. If the low slope is made in about 1h, it is also possible to make the loop of the panorama that rises in the forest to overlook the river. This part requires a baby carrier. The entrance is $7 for those over 6 years.
Le Parc de la Rivière Doncaster
This cycle path, which turns into a cross-country ski trail in winter, is accessible to bicycles, strollers, scooters and walkers. It is the perfect route to discover the lakes and rivers that follow it, almost flat, and away from cars. The trail stretches 234km, so you’ll have plenty to explore!
At @aixpat_patrouille, we especially like the portion around Val David and Val Morin. Icing on the cake, the whole course is free.
Le petit train du Nord
Saint Adele
This park is a wonder in the fall. It is not really accessible to strollers (the trail on Lake Matley is closed) but it offers the discovery of a beautiful forest, where birch and maple trees quibble in a mixture of gold and red. Nevertheless be careful with the little ones, the trails are also frequented by visits that sometimes descend very quickly. The rate of access is left to the free choice of the visitors.
Le parc du Mont Loup Garou
Mont Tremblant Park, Pimbina area
This part of Mont Tremblant Park is completely accessible by stroller! From the reception station, the return journey to the Chute aux Rats measures 9.7km with a minimal difference in altitude. The trail meanders among the trees, you can observe a rich fauna and of course the waterfall as a reward at the end. The fall is directly accessible by car with parking at about 100m, for those who would not like to walk long. It’s in the park So access is $9.25 per day for those over 18.
