Path is accessible for all, as it is flat, paved, and completely off road. It is also lighted, and open all year round. The only downside is that it runs through industrial areas and alongside highways \u2013 however, it is kind of fun to look through the trees and see gridlocked cars, while you\u2019re cycling along with the wind in your hair!<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">We set off from the <strong>Old Port of Montreal<\/strong> and just kept following the signs. It&#8217;s impossible to get lost &#8211; the only question is how far you will go before you turn back. We went right to the very end, which I highly recommend, as the best views are at the end. There are two stops along the way where you can buy snacks and water (or rent a boat or bike). These two places are close together, so stock up on fluids when you find them.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13169\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13169\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2aGF7pc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"13169\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/averagejoecyclist.com\/montreal-cycling-lachine-canal-bike-path\/montreal-lachine-canal-hire-boars\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/averagejoecyclist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/10\/Montreal-Lachine-Canal-hire-boars.jpg?fit=600%2C386&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"600,386\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"One of the stops along the Lachine Canal bike path where you can buy snacks, water and Gatorade &#8211;

There are public washrooms at the Atwater Market across from the bike shop on Lachine Canal, and in Rene Levesque Park. We also found a great pub, the St-Ambroise Terrace. It\u2019s an outdoor pub, where food is prepared outside on a household barbeque! It also had washrooms \u2013 albeit of the porta potty variety. Oh, and it\u2019s attached to the St-Ambroise Microbrewery, so you get to enjoy fresh beer!<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: center;\">As with so many other bike trails in Canada, the Lachine Canal Bike Path is brightened up by often very interesting artwork, such as the statue at the top of this post.<\/p>\n<h2>History of the Lachine Canal Bike Path<\/h2>\n<p>The Lachine Canal has a lot of history attached to it, and cyclists can stop to read about it on the signposts. The canal was first opened in 1825, and was very important in growing Montreal into a major industrial force. It was usurped by the St. Lawrence Seaway in 1959, and now it is a Designated National Historic Site. The Lachine Canal Bike Path was opened in 1978, and is the oldest bike path in Montreal.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">The Lachine Canal Bike Path is wonderful, because it connects to an entire network of other great bike routes. There is no better place to start your cycling holiday in Montreal than exploring the Lachine Canal Bike Path. Along the way, enjoy the site and stop to admire working locks such as this one:<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13168\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13168\" style=\"width: 693px\"

You have reached the St Lawrence Seaway, and are looking out on Lake Saint-Louis<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\">Once you park your bike and join the other cyclists relaxing on
