Promenade Samuel-de-Champlain
This 6.8 km (4.2-mile) promenade along the St. Lawrence River offers a truly gorgeous and privileged space to enjoy the water. It's a beloved local hotspot, boasting stunning vistas of the river and the two bridges spanning it to the west. The park's creative and contemporary landscape design attracts a lively crowd of pedestrians, cyclists, and inline skaters on sunny summer days, with children often seen playing by the fountains and on the sprawling lawns. Toward the eastern end, you'll discover a charming café and an observation tower, alongside the newly inaugurated Station de la Plage. This spectacular addition features a sandy beach area complete with chairs and umbrellas, and an infinity pool that truly gives the impression of bathing directly in the river, complemented by cascading water fountains. During high season, shuttle bus #400 conveniently transports visitors directly from Petit-Champlain in Lower Town to this scenic stretch every 30 minutes.
