After years and years - 5 or 6? - they managed to rebuild the boardwalk across the wetland. So it's nice and it worths to come again. Not everything is okay, though. Many indicators in the trails, after crossing the wet land coming from the boardwalks, are on the ground or missing. Doesn't look like a well managed area.
About Montreal parkometers in the parks: they ask now for plate no. I don't understand what is that waiting time for checking the plate no? What are they checking? This is annoying! I don't come to the park to have my plate no checked! Also, the parking fee is 8 dollars for 2 hours and 10 for whole day. I don't get the logic. Why we should pay for 2.5h like for a whole day?

AVOID going there and if you do go there, empty your car first. The place is not...

Mosquito repellent is a must! The only negative point, and quite a major one, is that there are often no signs to indicate directions; we came to many forks in the paths where we had to totally guess which way to go (very frustrating!!!). The chalet d’accueil has clean bathrooms and picnic tables outside. The chalet is surrounded by annual begonia flowers - I wish the money spent on the flowers was used instead towards more sign posts on...
