Arthur-Therrien Park

Highlight • Rest Area

Arthur Therrien Park is a large riverfront green space set along the St. Lawrence River, with open lawns and paved paths that connect directly to Chemin des Berges. The park includes a seasonal outdoor pool, sports fields, tennis courts, a skate park, playgrounds, picnic areas, washrooms, drinking fountains, and bike racks. Its shoreline setting offers expansive views over the river toward the Lachine Rapids, making it a popular recreational hub and a scenic stop along the waterfront route.

Verdun Beach

Highlight • Beach

Verdun Beach, just behind the Verdun Auditorium, has a beautiful sandy shoreline and a calm, buoy-marked swimming area protected by a rock dike. During summer (mid-June to early September), the beach offers amenities including changing rooms, showers, washrooms, a children’s playground, drinking fountains, and accessible pathways down to the water. It's it an ideal spot for families, hikers, and cyclists on Chemin des Berges to take a break and relax.

Rapids Viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

The eastern tip viewpoint at Parc des Rapides offers one of the closest, safest vantage points to the powerful Lachine Rapids on the St. Lawrence River. From this shoreline lookout, you can watch fast-moving currents, standing waves, and seabirds that gather in the churning water, with clear views toward the Champlain Bridge and Île des Sœurs. Connected by Chemin des Berges, the paved path leads to benches and small observation areas where you can pause and take in the sound and force of the rapids.
