Walks and trails
Travel down the many walks and trails to observe the waterfall and the site's sights from multiple angles. The new trails at the bottom of the Parc de la Chute-Montmorency's heritage site have been completed, allowing visitors to fully experience the power and majesty of the waterfall, which is 30 metres higher than Niagara Falls.
