Parc-nature de
l’Anse-à-l’Orme
Located in the westernmost part of the Island of Montréal, this 233-hectare linear park is partially finished. Only the northwest portion of the park, which opens onto Lake of Two Mountains, is currently open to the public. This idyllic spot offers a magnificent view of the lake and the Oka area.
