Park Angrignon, Montreal

Park Angrignon consists of an urban park area, a large pond, a forest and two smaller ponds. What makes this park so attractive is the easy accessibility and the unique combination of urban area vs. relatively natural areas such as the forest along the larger pond.

How to Get Here

The park is located at the end station of metro line green, called Angrignon. Leave the station on the opposite site of the bus terminals and cross the large parking lot.

What to See Here

Extended forest area adjacent to ponds. Popular place among birdwatchers to see Eastern Screech Owls in winter. Both Cooper’s hawk and Red-shouldered hawk are nesting in this park. In summer and early spring you may have the chance to watch terns and kingfisher on the larger ponds and along the edges of ponds.
