To make winter hiking trails accessible to the mobility impaired, an all-new product has been introduced to Bic, Îles-de-Boucherville, Mont-Orford, Mont-Saint-Bruno, Mont-Tremblant and Oka national parks: the Ski-Vel. Designed by the Tri-Vel company, Ski-Vel can be easily adapted to people’s wheel chairs (not included) so they can enjoy exploring the snow trails. A Ski-Vel is available for free at each park’s Visitors Centre.

The park is a vast wild country and an ideal place for fishing enthusiasts. The most common species are speckled trout and northern pike. Some bodies of water also have brown trout and lake trout.

Some bodies of water are available as of 7 a.m. at the park's visitors centres on a first come first served basis. Since April 2008, to prevent the introduction of water-milfoil, the use of personal rowboats has been prohibited. Only personal canoes or kayaks will be allowed.
