On foot or by bike, what a pleasure it is to stroll along the Lachine Canal and then settle down on a terrace at the end of the day!
A waterway that connected Great Lakes cities to the rest of the world for 134 years, it played a key role in the industrialization of Montreal. Large companies immediately set up shop there, giving rise to the workers' cities, now Montreal neighbourhoods. After being abandoned, part of this waterway was finally redeveloped into a park and a bicycle path now runs along the canal from the Old Port to Lachine.

Rendu à Lachine, magnifiques points de vue sur le Lac Saint-Louis, renflement du fleuve Saint-Laurent qui précède les Rapides de Lachine, lesquels avaient originalement motivé la construction du canal.
Le vaste bassin de regroupement à l'embouchure du canal lui-même est devenu un véritable écrin de verdure sur les berges du lac qui mérite à lui seul le déplacement.
On retrouve aussi de jolis restaurants-terrasses face au bassin pour siroter l'apéritif ou apprécier un bon repas.
