Conservation park
Adjacent to Phase 2 of Belle-Dame Symbiocité, the La Prairie Conservation Park offers a unique and appealing environment with exceptional natural character, marked by abundant greenery. Tree species such as maple, birch, oak, and poplar can be found.
You will find more than 11.4 km of multifunctional trails with interpretation panels connecting the various residential neighbourhoods of La Prairie. In winter, these trails transform into a network of cross-country skiing and snowshoe paths. Enjoy a green space maintained year-round and accessible to all citizens. The La Prairie Conservation Park is a protected area under Quebec’s Wildlife Conservation and Enhancement Act, aimed at preserving wildlife and its habitat through sustainable development.
