Visited Parc de la Chute Montmorency on December 23rd, 2024. We arrived on a Monday and found that it wasn’t overcrowded, which was nice for a more peaceful experience. Unfortunately, the main service office was closed, meaning all activities and services were unavailable during our visit.

There is a little gift shop with a coffee shop and snacks. On the top, you can walk across the...

This is a full 5 plus. It's an incredible waterfall that is higher than Niagara falls. You can walk up to the top or take the cable car Either way the view is spectacular. There water going over the falls can fill an Olympic size pool every second! Another not to be missed sight/site in the Quebec city area .

Parc de la Chute-Montmorency is an ideal spot for nature lovers and photography enthusiasts. Went on a Saturday afternoon, the park was crowded (weekends, between 10:30-2:00pm seems like the peak times), I recommend visiting early during weekdays and book tickets ahead of time. Buying your ticket on the spot will be a hassle since the visitor’s center is crazy busy. The highlight of our visit is ...

When is the best time to visit Montmorency Falls Park (Quebec City, Canada)?

In summer, add the guided historic tour and zipline for warm-weather thrills. In fall, picnic amid colorful foliage. In winter, paths can be icy—wear crampons and use the cable car to avoid stairs. Early spring trails stay muddy; choose waterproof boots.
