Parc Angrignon, Urban park in Le Sud-Ouest, Montreal, Canada.
Parc Angrignon is a large urban park in Montreal's southwestern district featuring forested areas, open grassy spaces, and a substantial lake. The grounds connect different landscape types and offer multiple routes to explore.
The park was named after Jean-Baptiste Angrignon, a longtime city councilor from the Côte Saint-Paul district. This naming honors his contributions to the development of that part of Montreal.
The park follows design principles from 19th-century English gardens, which blend natural landscapes with carefully planned walking routes. Visitors experience this mix of wild and cultivated areas as they move through the space.
The park offers picnic areas with grills, playgrounds for children, drinking fountains, and restroom facilities spread throughout. Both free and paid parking options are available for those arriving by car.
During winter, the park's walking routes become pathways for cross-country skiing and snowshoeing, offering a different way to experience the grounds. This seasonal transformation takes advantage of the site's natural conditions.
