Montreal Biosphere

The Montreal Biosphere and Park are located on Saint Helen's Island, part of the historical Hochelaga Archipelago, on the banks of the Saint Lawrence River. The striking geodesic dome on the island is an unforgettable sight. Built in 1967 and completely renovated in 2019, it houses the largest museum in Canada dedicated to the environment. Inside, interactive exhibits explore different ecological themes and host rotating interactive features.

The biosphere includes a park with a network of interconnected paths, taking visitors through lovely green spaces, a special ecological habitat, woodlands and wetlands, historical monuments, and a viewpoint from which you can take in the stunning views. Guided tours are available, as well as boat trips around the biosphere for viewing the surrounding landscape and enjoying a breathtaking sunset. There are regular events at the biosphere to enjoy, such as star-gazing nights and musical performances. A visit to the Montreal Biosphere and Park is a great way to discover more about this unique park and its eco-friendly message.
