Montreal is a hiking city in disguise. Sure, there’s the mountain that gave the island its name, but venture just a bit further, and you’ll find that both the island and its surrounding areas were practically built for days on the trails. Glacier-carved ridgelines in the Laurentians, waterfall-laced gorges in the Eastern Townships, and quiet lakeside loops just off the highway complement tamer downtown nature paths and western agricultural enclaves.
In rounding up our list of the best hikes in and around the city, we’ve attempted to strike a balance between Mount Royal’s accessible summit paths and technical ridge scrambles that require ropes and head for heights. You’ll find family-friendly boardwalks through marshland, panoramic peaks with views into Vermont and New York, and a few lesser-known spots that the locals tend to keep lock-and-key.
