Walking Tour: Mount Royal’s North Slope

The northern side of Mount Royal holds many surprises! This route invites you to explore lesser-known trails where nature reclaims its space and history unfolds along the way. Learn about the landscape’s evolution, the wildlife that finds refuge here, and the key anecdotes that shape this section of the park. From Notre-Dame-des-Neiges Cemetery to the dense northern forest, this hike offers a unique perspective on the mountain.
