Les Quartiers du Canal
The Quartiers du Canal district is a grouping of three storied Montréal neighbourhoods: Griffintown, Little Burgundy and Saint-Henri. Primarily located along the historic Lachine Canal, it's fast becoming a hub for food, drink and outdoor fun. The once industrial urban neighbourhood in Montréal's southwest area has transformed into one of the city's trendiest neighbourhoods, at once youth-oriented and family-friendly, a place for late-night dinner and drinks as much as it is for sun-dappled afternoon bike rides along the canal.
Go with the Lachine Canal’s flow
The Canal’s back in a big way
Brick smokestacks and revamped warehouses recall the city’s industrial past in the canal district, which is fast becoming a hub for food, drink and outdoor fun. Walk, jog and bike along the sides of the Lachine Canal or kayak, canoe and electric boat on the waters of the canal itself – there are many ways for the motion-oriented to enjoy this area. Sample the creative cuisine at one of Notre-Dame Street’s plethora of super-hip upstart eateries, and find something utterly unique at one of the many artisanal food shops, antique stores, galleries and designer boutiques. Stroll through the iconic Atwater Market to make your visit complete.
