Morgan trail

Free access
Near the Saputo stadium and Sherbrooke street

In the 1950s, in the section of Maisonneuve Park where the Olympic Park now stands, Morgan hill sat between Sherbrooke Street, Viau Boulevard, Boyce Avenue, and Desjardins Street. It was a popular spot for locals to enjoy a wide range of winter activities, from skiing to luge.

Morgan hill was refurbished in 2020, and now offers a new walking trail that links the Olympic Park to Maisonneuve Park. It has been named the Morgan Path in honour of the hill’s importance to our city’s heritage.

The walking path features beautiful views of the Tower and Monteregian Hills, as well as a circuit of outdoor fitness equipment.
