The guide
Where exactly
The best way is to park in the lot next to the Victoria Bridge seaway locks. Or if you have a bike to ride the trail that is on the lower part of the canal facing Montreal. Cross street: Seaway.
Cruisiest spot: Leaving the Victoria bridge to the east, head west about 100 feet until you see a Hydro wire tower in white, head to the water's edge following the trail that winds it's way to the Champlain bridge. Best if you have a bike to cover as much territory as possible.
When to go
All day. Best times: Better from mid-afternoon to sunset. Dates open: Weather permitting.
Sunset today · Sunrise tomorrow
Etiquette
Rare will you see straight people, but do keep an eye out for the possible lingerers or voyuers.
Safety
Flies in spring can hinder your enjoyment. Occaisional partiers have bonfires in the late evening.

In the south shore, drive to the Parking lot next to the Victoria Bridge. Walk accross the pedestrian bridge that goes over the seaway. turn left and walk about 50 mts over the bike path until you see a white Hydro wire tower on your right. There is a small path (just before the tower) that leads toward the woods. Get lost and enjoy.

Quel bel endroit pour avoir du plaisir! Tranquille, suffisamment pour p–n–trer quelqu'un pendant une heure sans se faire d–ranger (sauf –videmment par quelques voyeurs...)
