We biked from Montreal here, I love the 'forest' area, you really do feel like you are biking through the woods when in facts it's an urban space, a huge parc with so much to see, deer, marmots, ducks, and so many birds. Proper bathrooms are available right next to an ice-cream vendor, delicious soft serve. Bring your lunch and have a picnic by the water, great place for a stroll or a jog, highly recommend.
