Parc-agricole du Bois-de-la-Roche

Montreal West Island is full of beautiful parks, yet Parc-agricole du Bois-de-la-Roche seems to stand out, as it is calm, beautiful, and full of wildlife.

The park has a nice path in the woods which is easy to follow, makes it amazing for an afternoon stroll to take your mind of work and the outside world.

From a personal perspective. As soon as I arrived to this park I heard the sounds of crickets which brings me back to my childhood and growing up in the woods. That nostalgic edge makes this park just the best in Montreal, at least for me :)

Here are some pictures that I took on the walk, I hope you like it, and you get to visit it yourself.
