Lac aux Castors (Beaver Lake)
Lac aux Castors (Beaver Lake) Review
Mont-Royal's single body of water is actually a reclaimed bog, but it's a great place for kids to float model boats in the summertime or take a ride on a pedal boat. In winter, the lake's frozen surface attracts whole families of skaters, and nearby there's a groomed slope where kids of all ages can ride inner tubes. The city recently refurbished the glass-fronted Beaver Lake Pavilion, turning part of it into a very pleasant bistro that serves lunch and dinner. Skate and cross-country-ski rentals are available downstairs.
