Bois-de-l'Île-Bizard Nature Park, Nature park in L'Île-Bizard–Sainte-Geneviève, Canada.

The 216-hectare park contains extensive wetlands, marshes, and woodland areas bordering Lac Des Deux Montagnes and Rivière Des Prairies in Montreal.

Jacques Bizard received the territory rights in 1678, naming it Bonaventure before it became a quarry site providing construction stones for the island.

The park maintains ecological observation stations where visitors learn about regional flora and fauna through guided presentations and nature interpretation programs.

The park offers 7 kilometers of hiking trails, 12 kilometers of snowshoe paths, and a small beach suitable for families with children.

A 500-meter footbridge extends through the marsh ecosystem, allowing visitors to observe the wetland environment without disturbing natural habitats.
