About the Trail: TRAIL #1 (CHELSEA)
This is a beautiful, wide-track trail perfect for young kids, strollers etc. Trail #1 is accessible and super easy to access, has ample free parking and has picnic areas at both ends!
The #1 trail starts with a very steep climb near Old Chelsea and then turns into a moderate "blue square" trail with lots of hill climbing and descending until the end at the Luskville Fire Tower.
Access Info
If you are starting from Old Chelsea you can park in the Chelsea parking/picnic area next to L'Orée du Boris restaurant on Notch Rd and at the Gatineau Park Visitors Center on Scott Street or Penguin Picnic area (parking lot). You can find the Gatineau Park map on the links on this page
About Hike Montreal
Hike Mtl hopes to empower, showcase and normalize BIPOC reclaiming outdoor spaces through community based activities. By doing so we can begin to change the narrative and start to bridge the gap between people of colour and their connection to nature.
