La route bleue – Tronçon fluvial – Le Grand Héron

This 8-km, intermediate-level trail takes less than 3 hours to complete and skirts the islands of Sainte-Marguerite, Pinard and de la Commune. It offers magnificent views of Boucherville and the opportunity to observe a wide variety of birds. A more sheltered section crosses the seagrass beds, which are accessible depending on water levels in summer. Departure is from the Centre de découverte et de services de l’île Sainte-Marguerite, or from Grosbois campground.
