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.

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.

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 ...
