+softball29 Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 I have looked around and can't seem to find a caching group for Montreal. Anyway, I'll be going to the city in a few weeks and was trying to find some of the "must-hit" geocaches. We'll be staying downtown and likely venturing to Mont Royal at some point (two of the people going with us have never been to the city, so we want to show them that). Thanks for any help!

+tangerineman Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Montreal's got some fantastic caching in the Bois de Liesse (check GCZ19W) if you're looking for forest trails. It's a large hardwood forest with great trails for walking, cycling or cross-country skiing and tons of caches. Look to the north of that area as well, on Laval island. Also, east of there in the Isle de Bizzard, though my experience there was no doubt affected by gorgeous fresh snow and a full moon on new years eve a couple of years ago. I'm yet to try any downtown caches. If puzzles are more to your style (pas moi, je suis TERrible at them), there are some fantastic puzzlers in the area, including in Dollard, west island. Bon chance! Quote Link to comment
+HomerJFong Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 This one was my favourite from my trip to Montreal this past November. Simple hide, great location! http://www.geocaching.com/seek/cache_detai...2f-7af4b9e780e0 Quote Link to comment
+tangerineman Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Wow, good one HJF. I clicked on the map then backed out, and the number of caches in the downtown area is quite impressive. Clearly I have to head down there next time I'm in town. There are lots in the Mount Royal area I notice, and one's bound to be at the lookout, which is definitely worth a visit while in Montreal.

+rtyrie Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 (edited) There are a few caches on Mont Royal. If I remember correctly, this one was not too far from the lookout: House on Fire Edited July 31, 2009 by rtyrie Quote Link to comment
+blackjack65 Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 (edited) Montreal's got some fantastic caching in the Bois de LiesseAll caches in that park have being archived,at the land administrator's request. Come to GeoCaching-Qc.com and ask that question for local answers. Thre is a Stargate cache nest to the lookout on the mountain, for premium members only. My Da Vinci Code - Roslyn in Quebec multi is quite the hit! ;-) Edited August 4, 2009 by blackjack65 Quote Link to comment

What a shame, I'm glad I got to some of them at least. This must have happened in the last week or so. Quote Link to comment
