Really nice bike ride along the canal. You’ll see Montrealer’s soaking in the sun, playing frisbee and skating. Make sure to stop at the Atwater Market where you can buy ice cream, eat something and look at local produce.

Parks & Nature
A forested hill in the middle of the city, don’t miss out great view of Montreal from the “Belvedère”. This park was designed by F.L. Olmsted, who also designed NYC’s Central Park. I work as an environmental educator in this park; so I can tell you lots about it, just ask!
