Îles-de-Boucherville National Park

Boucherville, Canada · built 1984

The Îles-de-Boucherville National Park is a provincial park along the St. Lawrence River in the province of Quebec. Located on the South Shore of Montreal, near the suburb of Boucherville, the park comprises a handful of islands dotted with wetlands, bike paths, kayak circuits, cross-country ski trails, and public golf courses. Wildlife can be readily observed in all seasons, including the white-tailed deer, red fox, and the grey squirrel. Formerly used as agricultural land, the islands were targeted for real-estate development in the 1970s, prompting the provincial government to acquire the islands and create the park in 1984. Since 1999, it has been administered by the Société des établissements de plein air du Québec (Sépaq), which manages several Quebec parks and wildlife refuges.
