Why Walk Montreal

Montreal is a delight to walk in every season, with a distinct European flair that sets it apart from any other North American city. Old Montreal's cobblestoned streets and 17th-century stone buildings house art galleries, restaurants, and the magnificent Notre-Dame Basilica. The Plateau Mont-Royal is one of the continent's most walkable neighborhoods, with colorful row houses, winding staircases, and Mile End's famous bagel shops and cafes. Boulevard Saint-Laurent divides the city's French and English sides, lined with boutiques, bars, and restaurants. Mount Royal park, designed by Frederick Law Olmsted, offers wooded trails and a summit viewpoint overlooking the entire city. The Underground City (RESO) connects over 30 kilometers of shops, restaurants, and metro stations beneath the surface — essential during Montreal's snowy winters.
