#ParcJeanDrapeau
Sliding
This year, come and merrily make your way down Espace 67's natural slope. Since the zone is free of any obstacles, kids can slide in total safety. A path, located at the far end of the sliding zone, will be set up to make it easy to go back up the hill for more sliding fun.
Bring your sled, toboggan, sliding carpet, foam board or any other wacky way to slide and come discover this great place for winter enjoyment.
There's loads of fun in store, and it's a wonderful activity for the entire family.

The visitors must follow health recommendations of the Public Health.
Also, wearing a mask or a face covering is mandatory inside the facilities (buildings and restrooms) and when social distancing is not possible.

A sustainable and responsible outdoors
To promote a healthy co-existence between the natural areas and the activities conducted at Parc Jean-Drapeau, the Parc urges users to respect the seven outdoor ethics principles recommended by Leave No Trace Canada.
1. Plan ahead and prepare
Plan your activities by checking the Parc's various platforms and using an active or public mode of transportation.
2. Use sustainable surfaces
During your travels and activities, use the trails that have been laid out and help in preserving Parc Jean-Drapeau's ecosystems.
3. Dispose of waste properly
Minimize your ecological footprint while you are here: use a reusable water bottle, use recyclable bags and bring your compostable matter back with you.
4. Leave what you find
To sustain the longevity of natural areas, the heritage and the various facilities of the Parc, please limit the things you do and make sure you leave the areas as you found them.
5. Minimize the impact of campfires
In an effort to protect the natural areas and reduce the ecological impact, campfires are prohibited at Parc Jean-Drapeau, as they are everywhere else in Montréal.
6. Respect wildlife
To avoid disrupting the behaviour and habitat of wildlife at the Parc, please limit your interaction and just observe from a distance.
7. Be considerate of others
Everyone wants to have a good time and a pleasant experience, so please respect the areas you visit, other people, and be courteous.
