Take a morning run along the St. Lawrence River in this richly forested park. Parc de la Plage-Jacques-Cartier offers access to the river with a narrow marine terrace, as well as a panoramic view of the river from the side of a cliff. This park is stroller-friendly, picnic-ready, and in the winter, welcomes snowshoe hikers.

Enjoy nature watching or sit on a bench with your head in a book. Let your dog sniff about the park or let their energy out running in & out of the river. For any questions about the park, call 311, the city service line.
