Ruisseau-De Montigny Nature Park, Regional park in northeastern Montreal, Canada.
Ruisseau-De Montigny Nature Park is a protected natural space in northeastern Montreal featuring woodland and waterway habitats. The park contains several hiking paths that wind through the area and pass by natural features including a creek and islands.
The site was once used as a dumping ground before undergoing restoration in the early 2000s. Cleanup efforts revived the creek and surrounding woodland, transforming the area into a functioning nature park.
The park serves as a gathering place where locals observe migratory birds and appreciate the recovered waterway running through the city. People come here to experience a slice of nature that contrasts with the surrounding urban landscape.
The park is open daily and reachable by public transportation with multiple bus routes serving the area. Walking paths are clearly marked and accessible for visitors of varying abilities.
A limestone waterfall creates a notable drop in the landscape, while earthen berms help shield visitors from nearby highway noise. These features make the park feel more removed from the city despite its urban location.
