Doncaster River Park

I love this river park, good place to go in the weekend, very interesting trails next to the river, and the sound of water can really calm you down and relax, friendly to dogs.

One of the best hiking parks with waterfalls and river. Amaizing views!

We just LOVE park Doncaster! We have been coming here for years with our dogs as they allow entrance to dogs! They have a variety of trails to choose from. Beautiful wooded areas along with a walk beside the rapid waters and falls. It’s very serene and peaceful here. There is an entrance fee. There are bathrooms in the park and garbage cans aswell. Picnic tables are available at the entrance.

It’s worth the drive from anywhere. We live on the West Island and love the drive there and back. We always stop by old st. Sauveur for dinner at the ye old orchard pub ( their terrace allows dogs!)

This is a beautiful park, with multiple hiking trails and a main trail that even those with strollers or those who are mobility reduced can use. You can fish here ($19 per adult, $7 per child over 6, 5 and under are free) or just pay to get in and hike the trails if you are not fishing (prices are less expensive than if you are fishing). At the main entrance, there are bathrooms. The trails are marked on an easy to read map. There are lots of stunning views, dense forest and lots of animals to see! Above all, the staff were extremely friendly and helpful and the park was clean and well maintained. There is also a little area at the main entrance with picnic tables, a little shaded gazebo and a play structure for kids to play on! You can do fly fishing here, or bait fishing and they sell live worms at the main entrance. A hidden jewel, I would highly recommend going there as a family or even on your own.

Wonderful facility for walking, fishing, photos, picnicking, something suitable for all ages, dog friendly. Restrooms along the main track paralleling the river. Carparking is available at the trailhead. Reasonable entry fee. Take water, a light jacket and phone reception is pretty good 👍

Wonderful winter hike! So many different trails to choose from, perfect for families with kids. You will need either crampons or snowshoes, some parts are very slippery. Dogs allowed, so that's a big plus!😊👌

Incredible experience. If you are from Montreal definitely worth the 50 minute drive. Not only is a beautiful place it's a very serene experience. If you're looking for a good place to go hiking and challenge yourself this is it. You have a path to follow but also can create your own. Pack a back pack with water and some food and you can also enjoy your own lunch anywhere you stop (benches available) if you're in to fishing definitely a place for you as well. Highly recommend

Great location to disconnect from the noise , and to connect with nature.
That's the best connection for humans.
So peaceful and all kinds of trails for all ages. People are so friendly here. It feels kike they are more human than in the city. I will definetly return. Thank you.

A scenic hiking area with an amazing forest trail. You will need crimp on spikes or snowshoes, but well worth it. You can bring your dog and cost for an adult is $7 for non residents. Lots of parking.

A nicely maintained trail. It's not too long nor difficult. There're a bunch of chairs through the park so visitors can relax and admire the view. Dogs friendly and a map indicating your location at different check point are a plus :)

Very nice easy hike for all ages and dogs.

The park is really nice and big, its a really great stop for trout fishing, you can lake (pool fish) or river fish. Make sure you have your quebec fishing permit. And it a good place for a hike in the forest and to walk your dog. Highly recommended for families

Such a beautiful place.
Peaceful scenery for a hike along the river 😊
Thank you KS for the discovery !

Very well designed and maintained trails. Two nice points of view. If you feel like a picnic while soaking up the sun, there's a natural beach along the river.

My boyfriend and I spent the afternoon here today. Despite it being a rainy day, it was a lot of fun! Entry was $7/adult, and there was a tiny parking lot just beside the entrance. Of note, there did seem to be a ton of people parked on the side of the road, didn't seem to be a problem.

We chose the summit path to the top, which was about 30 minutes uphill, not too steep for the average hiker. Adequate view at the top, with a bench for sitting. We chose to do a few other trails before leaving, and each of the hiking paths are very well indicated. There's a few that follow the river (gravel) that are well-suited for families and young children, they're not super difficult. Our favorite one was #2, which follows the river and rocks!.

We didn't bring food for a picnic, but there seemed to be a sheltered area at the entrance with portable toilets.

Dogs seemed to be welcomed at this park!

Nice place you can see on the way little waterfalls, you can choose you trails from easy to challenge

You want to feel refreshed during summer? Go here, it is always nice to sit down and relax your legs in cold water to have a better circulation. You get to feel the small waves of water and listen to the sound of mother nature heal your mind

My friend and I also had time to put a towel underneath and just lie down for few minutes. The sun on our faces, slight breeze, what can you ask for more!

Beautiful park with lots of trails. Beautiful waterfalls. Dog friendly. I’ve found that everyone here keeps their dog leashed and cleans up after their dogs which is great.

Trail #1 is perfect for those who are looking for a shorter yet still picturesque hike (40-60 mins) traveling along the river. Crampons are mandatory right now, and rightly so (although alot has melted there was still a considerable amount of ice when we went).

Very beautiful park. Many trails to hike, different expertise levels. Clean and well kept. Highly recommend for an afternoon hike.
