Jacques-Cartier Park

PARK'S name commemorates the name of an early leader of French colonial imperialists set on looting and plundering for the glory and swelling coffers of the motherland. For aboriginal peoples, it was the beginning of a centuries long nightmare which continues.

Beautiful park. Clean. Nice view of the water and sail boats.
Very lovely and a hot spot for biking.

Super belle expérience vos la peine de faire ce tour et avec le capitaine Jérôme et Kim qui font une belle ambiance vraiment un beau trip.

Très beau parc. Possibilité d'y faire du vélo et de la marche. Grands espaces verts et bien entretenu.

All the cool photos of green flowery sculptures are apparently from 2018. Now it's just an open field. Don't travel here for the sculptures. They don't exist.

No statues there right now, huge let down when we got there and tried to find them but the whole area is under construction. Don't bother going if thats the reason.

Beautiful park, loved Richard's statue, big Hockey fan and marina is small not too crowded, no bathroom here except for construction workers took over out house and even put a chain and lock around it! Asked workers if I could use it and he said no only for workers!

Everything around the Parliament Hill area is world class. Well worth the walk around this area for some great monuments, views and architecture.

In summer 2021 the park is under renovation after two years of the stupid Mosaiculture exhibit. The grass is completely fenced off and inaccessible. The grass looked great; supposedly the fences will be removed soon.

One off the most relaxing walk I have done. The view off the river from the other side is amazing.

No garden sculptures this year, very dissapointing. There is also some construction happening. Other than that, the park is decent and has a nice waterfront. 3 stars since its not as great as it was advertised in the years before.

Don't even bother going to this park the pictures that you see on the website they haven't been there for 2 years waste a time

Les pistes cyclables du Parc Jacques-Cartier à Gatineau sont accessibles même si les aires gazonnées sont interdites d'accès par de grosses clôtures métalliques. Les tulipes sont en fleur le 3 mai 2021.

Même s'il est fermé, nous avons pu nous promener au bord de la rivière, près du pont, la belle vue pour prendre de belles photos et le temps super agréable, ils nous ont fait aimer l'endroit.

You can view the flights takeoff and landing to YUL airport from here.there is a parking space near by.

It no more exists. Got removed by government after hosting the park for 2 years on account of completing 150 years.

The statues and sculptures have been razed. The park is good for spending a calm evening. The bed of tulip buds was the only good thing about the park.

Beautiful! We love going around 9 or 10pm and walking down to where the boats stop. When there's a full moon it's an amazing place to take photos and there are benches by the water so you can just relax and enjoy the beautiful view. Anytime we've gone we have only seen a couple people just enjoying the view as we were. Great place to walk off a big restaurant meal!

Amazing! Place of many activities like Tulip festival, Winterlude, Beer Fest, spectacular fireworks view.

It would be nice if they already finish the construction when we visited the park. However for running it is a nice course

Nature's beautiful art great place to go with family or friends make sure to bring a camera best to go on a nice day when it's not raining

Great park and it's huge but unfortunately for me when I went there it was still early spring and there were still snow on the ground so I didn't get a chance to see those beautiful art work

Beautiful park. Love to come here with my dog. Nice path along the river when it's not submerged by the spring floods. The park itself has allot of goose doodoo. Aside from that, you get amazing views from here.

Beautiful place to spend time. You can hop on to a cruise and also trail. Parking is a bit expensive. They need more bathrooms there. Now they are working on it and you can see seasonal attractions there

This is amazing winter activities for winterlude and the botanical gardens which blocked most of the area Last summer but natural beauty is important in public places good for a walk run biking and ski good family friendly park and well maintained at all times

La visite en bateau est recommandé. Prévoyez de l'argent en cash pour faire des achats lors de la visite en bateau.

This is a must see if you are around. Charge your phones to the max and even take a power bank with you. It is definitely worth the admission and the parking fee that you'll pay. Leave a half day to visit this park otherwise you won't be able to make the most out of it.
