Boisé du Tremblay

The Boisé du Tremblay is a woodland area stretching across multiple hundred hectares between Longueuil and Boucherville, with dense forest covering most of the terrain. Walking paths wind throughout the woodland, creating routes that connect different sections of the forest.

This woodland once covered a much larger area before urban development reduced it significantly during the 20th century. Today, conservation measures work to protect the remaining forest and maintain its connection to nearby woodland corridors.

This woodland serves as a gathering place where residents connect with nature, and local groups regularly organize cleanup days and guided observation walks through the forest.

The walking paths are well marked and easy to follow through different sections of the forest. Wearing sturdy shoes and checking weather conditions beforehand helps, as path conditions vary depending on the season.

This woodland is an essential habitat for the Western chorus frog, a species that has become increasingly difficult to find across North America. The forest also houses impressively organized insect colonies that visitors occasionally spot while exploring.
