A beautiful and serene nature reserve in the West Island of Montreal. It's a bit far from downtown if you are visiting from out of town, but well worth the drive. Afterwards have dinner at the Willow in Hudson.

Visited the arboretum whilst visiting Montreal. Im a photographer so Im not exactly hiking and i like to stop and watch. I walked a little while and then sat on a bench and listened and found that I was getting bitten. No one told me that there are loads of mosquitos and that you need to get protected before going out. I had to keep moving and didnt stay long. It would have been useful if reception had mentioned it then I could have got protected.
I did see a red fox but it disappeared before I could get a photograph of it.

The Morgan Arboretum is located on the tip of the West Island of Montreal in Senniville. Part of the McGill network it offers various trails for walking, hiking or running. Dogs are only allowed with members who have been licence to be admitted however. There is ample parking and bus service to the facility. On site is a cabin with washrooms with table for eating as well as picnic tables and benches. There are no food services available so bring a picnic. The Royal Astronomical Society of Montreal have a telescope on site and schedule public viewings. The Arboretum has various events and workshops such as Octoberfest, bird watching, guided nature walks, winter carnival, and they have their own Sugar Shack. The Arboretum has a vast variety of tree species that are hard to find elsewhere in Montreal....making Fall a popular time to visit. Great spot for Birders and Photograhers. My favourite time is winter to use the trails for Snowshoeing and Cross Country skiing.

I have been volunteering here for more than 15 years. It is a place where nature is just allowed to be nature as much as possible. If you are not a member you are able to go and enjoy the space for a reasonable fee per person.

Most hiking places are free except for this place. We went in April, and there is absolutely nothing to see.

Love the Morgan Arboretum; but especially the trails. Go with hiking boots in the summer,long pants, long sleeves, a hat, sunscreen and bug spray. You never know what you might be walking through and you need to protect against tics (thus the bugspray). Get ready to feed the birds out of your hands and carry a camera for beautiful family photos. In the winter, bring your cross country skis or snow shoes. Great place to walk with your favorite 4 legged friend.

We spent the afternoon at the Morgan Arboretum. It was lovely, snowing lightly. We enjoyed a German sausage and eating maple syrup. Because it was still well below 8C, the sap was not running. But, we had a wonderful afternoon, enjoying the fresh air and wintry conditions!

The Morgan arboretum is a splendid refuge for cross country skiing, walking, snow shoe or birding. Dog walking for members with permission is another feature of the facility. Really nice spot.
