CROSS-COUNTRY SKIING IN LES GRANDS PARCS DE MONTRÉAL

This winter has been a cold one, and for a prairie girl, I loved the snow that stayed. It was fun to get back into a sport that makes the coldest days a fun one, especially when going skiing with a friend. It's hard to start cold, but that is the only way for this sport, because you do end up warm! I have had the good fortune of trying out the nicely groomed trails of Cap St Jacques (amazing views), Bois de liesse (sheltered and shorter) and, my favourite, Ile Bizard (quiet and woodsy). This is a boardwalk that overlooks the marsh. I'm almost ready to give up this winter, and look forward to walking this trail without the snow soon! Get a pass and visit one of the great Montreal Parks, even if its just on foot!
