Parc La Fontaine
A great place for hiking and biking in the summer and for skating and sledding in the winter.
Description
Don’t miss the park’s star bird, the European starling. This brown-feathered bird is renowned for its ability to mimic the songs of other birds. As you stroll through the park, discover a variety of cultural exhibitions being presented in different areas of the park all year long.
Petanque courts - 2023 season starting in May
Two petanque courts are available during the park’s opening hours. Holders of a playing permit have priority for reservations. This permit is free of charge. To get one, you must complete a form (available in French only) at least five days before you want to reserve the court. Questions? Write to [email protected].
Current projects
Le Jardin du Petit Monde à bicyclette
Since fall 2020, Avenue Calixa-Lavallée northbound and the parking area for the Pavillon de Calixa-Lavallée have become sites for new cyclists to learn the rules of the Highway Code. There are also introductory skateboarding classes.
Étang La Fontaine
The park’s pond was emptied at the beginning of September because there will be construction in the area for the rest of the fall.
- Reprofiling the island behind the Théâtre de Verdure and removing the construction site access path.
- Rebuilding a portion of the concrete wall.
- Connecting two trails in the northeastern sector of the park.
Construction will be completed in the spring, with a break for the winter.
