L'Anse-à-l'Orme Nature Park, Regional nature park at the western tip of Montreal Island, Canada

L'Anse-a-l'Orme Nature Park covers around 220 hectares along the mouth of Riviere a l'Orme and includes wetlands, forests, and walking paths. The site sits where the river meets Lake of Two Mountains, creating a varied landscape of water and woodland.

The name appears on maps dating to 1744 and may derive from Julien Hubert dit Delorme, a settler who received land by the cove in 1698. This connection links the site to the region's colonial past.

The park serves locals as a key outdoor gathering place where residents regularly enjoy windsurfing, boating, and ice fishing. These activities shape the rhythms of life there across all seasons.

The park provides changing rooms, paid parking, and washroom facilities at the entrance area. A boat launching ramp allows easy water access for those bringing watercraft.

The park functions as part of the larger Grand Parc de l'Ouest initiative, which has added land through successive expansions beginning in 2008. This growth strategy has reshaped conservation efforts in Montreal's western reaches.
