Introduction

Mount Royal Park is Montréal's 'urban green lung', planned in 1876 by Frederick Law Olmsted—designer of Central Park—atop the volcanic hill that gives the city its name. The Belvedere lookout is the classic vantage for downtown, the St. Lawrence and distant hills; winter brings skiing and tobogganing, summer open-air music and lakeside paths. For a jog, a picnic or simply watching the skyline, it is Montréalers' most everyday and poetic retreat.
