A great place for an intermediate level hike. Crampons recommended for a winter hike.

Beautiful nature trails, not the SEPAQ style superhighways but rather dreamy trails on rocks going through the woods. Beautiful lake, and lovely forests with boulders. Just a little crowded with many hikers and runners on the trails around the lake.

Beautiful place. Free parking and free admission. Hiking is not for beginners as there are some rocky areas and steep incline/decline. If you are looking for a scenic one hour hike the trail around the lake is beautiful.The website says there is 16km of trails so the park is quite big. There are beautiful views from the mountain, aswell as a another lake with a beaver dam. Very scenic park, dogs and bikes are prohibited.

Great place for a hike all year long. It is free to access and hike, or snow shoe. No dogs…we found out when we brought ours last summer. You will be kindly told to leave. We used crampons today (Dec 27) but snow shoes would be better.

I moved to Piedmont last year and discovered the trail a kilometer from my house, adjacent to Mont Olympia ski hill in Quebec. For months I hiked one section, but recently discovered it is an 8 km trail. Mostly well marked. Pretty easy day hike, or less than an hour 3.7 km loop from old train Station near the highway 117, around lac Paradis. Opportunities for some beautiful pictures.

Beautiful place, scenic hike with great views. We arrived there too late in the afternoon and did not get to the enjoy the sunset as much as we would've loved to, so will definitely be back!

Lovely nature park with trails of intermediate difficulty. Beautiful waterfall and lake. Be prepared for changes in elevation. I would recommend wearing hiking boots or other good shoes for climbing/outdoor activity. It is a pretty wild trail and not the easiest to navigate - infrequent map signage, but there are trailhead markers. There are also some nice signs about the local wildlife with QR codes.You may want to park at the parking lot next to Entrée Alfred Kelly Nature Reserve" on Rue de la Station. We visited in mid-April

Nice 3 hours hike. Be ready for hard rocky uphill and same downhills. Part of trail path is good with running shoe but other parts I would recommend good hiking shoes.There are several points of nice scenery but no wow moment.It is inside the city and you can hear sound of cars nearby.

Great option for hiking only 45min from the city (with no traffic). There’s several trails, not that east to navigate but it’s pretty busy so there’s people to ask around. Don’t need to reserve or pay fee to enter. There’s free parking at the base on the street. It’s an intermediate hike, lots of rocks and slopes going up/down. A nice lake to see and views from the top.
