Pelican Park

Parc du Pélican punches above its weight as a neighbourhood park. Tucked off rue Masson in Rosemont, it’s got year-round appeal—a sledding hill in winter, baseball diamonds and a dog park when the snow melts, and, in summer, a solid public pool and wading pool setup. The pool isn’t massive, but it’s clean, well-supervised, and paired with a shaded splash zone for younger kids. Parents can cool off while still keeping an eye on the action, and older swimmers get their space without dodging inflatable dolphins. The rest of the park is built for lingering: ping-pong tables, basketball courts, and a chalet for cooling off between games. Free entry, stroller-friendly paths, and seasonal programming like Théâtre La Roulotte round out the experience.
