These 275-foot falls on the Montmorency River tower higher than even the legendary Niagara Falls. The 2013 season promises to be exhilarating for people who will visit Parc de la Chute-Montmorency – Montmorency Falls, the second most visited site of the provincial capital after Old Quebec. The highlight of all the new summer activities is certainly the opening of two via ferrata routes built in the Boischatel fault near the waterfalls. Via ferrata – this is Italian for “iron roads” - is an activity accessible to everyone over 12 years old that combines hiking and rock climbing. The two paths are built on the rock face on the eastern side of the waterfall. The less adventurous will also be able to get stunning views of the 83-meter high waterfall aboard the cable car which now runs with sparkling new cabins. History buffs will be glad to know that guided tours are now offered each weekend in the company of Sir Frederick Haldimand, who served as Governor of Quebec from 1778 to 1786 and Mathilde Robin, best known as the Lady in White, who lost her fiance during the Montmorency Battle in 1759. Guided tours are offered in French or English until Labour Day weekend.

Our small group of 3 drove out from downtown using gps as recommended by staff at our hotel. We were told the falls were as high as Niagra Falls on the Canada-US border, but did not realize there was so much to do at the site. It has an excellent restaurant, walking bridge, zip-line across the falls, parks, tram and you can even walk so close to the falls that you can see rainbows from the spray and get soaking wet. Only one of the group rode across on the zip-line. She says it was great but just over too soon. Although it looks dangerous my daughter said it was very safe and even gives you a free video of your crossing in you have an iphone with you. All of us enjoyed the tram down into the vally where you can walk so close to the falls. Take your group photos from the bottom of the falls and you get great shots of the falls in the background. It was magnificient!!

Where history meets adventure! Chutes Coulonge Park is a logging interpretation site and outdoor adventure park. We offer a historical walk, scenic lookouts over the falls, Giant Canyon Ziplines, Treetop Obstacle Course and the Via Ferrata! This exciting activity is the only of its kind in the region and one of the few in Canada. Located in the Canyon of the Coulonge River, it consists of a climb/walk along the canyon’s rock face, using cables and anchor points to help you progress along the way. For the little ones we offer a splash pad, small rock climbing walls and a low-ropes obstacle course. Visit our museum, walk our trails or try our adrenaline pumping activities! Fun for the whole family!

We drove approx 2 hours to Chutes Coulonge. It was definitely worth the drive! The waterfall is wonderful, with a path and bridges that give you many different views of the falls and the log slide. Also discovered alot about logging: the process, the equipment and the gruelling labour. My daughter conquered her fears and ziplined across the canyon and climbed back up the cliff using a Via Ferrata course. ALL of the staff were wonderful -- friendly, knowledgeable and committed to safety. Special thanks to Matthew who helped my daughter rediscover her love of adventure. There is also an interesting obstacle course for smaller children, a splash pad, and a small, but informative logging museum. Already planning a return trip!

We hiked the 250 vertical meter stairway to visit these falls. It was a great hike with many great photo ops. This area is very accessible from a paved road.

This is a beautiful park with some amazing views. Free access and parking onsite. If you are mobile enough to walk up a number of stairs, you can access some lovely hiking trails and a suspended bridge with a great view of the falls. There are also stairs leading down to the water, where you can walk closer to the falls, but the terrain is tricky and slippery at spots. My 8-year-old was able to navigate it easily. A beautiful location to take in some fresh air and beauty.

Beautiful hike and a great workout for an average fitness level person. A nice view at the top. Pretty much straight up hill the entire way with few flat areas and then downhill the entire way back. Some areas are a bit rocky/dusty so wear good quality shoes. Took about 3 hours with some small rest stops to complete it. You will feel it in your legs the next day!

We were 4 of us, hiking yesterday (since it was below zero, we could go in our microspikes instead of snowshoes). It was a fantastic day, lovely trails, good views, and not crowded. We went early and did both the orange and pink loops. The pink one seems more popular and is more spectacular, but it's worthwhile doing it all. The price is very reasonable. Facilities are few: 10 pairs of snowshoes for rent, a few drinks and snacks to buy, and indoor toilets when the center is manned, which seems to be on the weekends. I had never even heard of this place, but will surely be back.
