Camillien-Houde belvedere is a roadside lookout in Mount Royal Park, at 1576 Voie Camillien-Houde. It looks east across Montréal, with the Olympic Stadium and surrounding neighbourhoods in view. The city lights make an evening stop appealing, while spring colour and autumn leaves add interest to the surrounding park. You can arrive by car and use the nearby parking, or include the lookout on a walk through the park. It is a quieter alternative to the summit’s Kondiaronk lookout, which is closer to downtown.
A different view from Mount Royal
Camillien-Houde belvedere gives you a view toward the eastern side of Montréal, including the Olympic Stadium and nearby neighbourhoods. It is distinct from the Kondiaronk belvedere near the summit, which looks over downtown and the Saint Lawrence River.
The lookout is part of Mount Royal Park, a large green space in the city with walking trails, picnic spots and other places to pause. Spring brings flowers and fresh greenery to the mountain; in fall, the changing leaves add colour to a visit.
Continuing through the park
The belvedere can be a stop on a longer walk rather than the end of one. From here, the Escarpment Trail leads toward the Kondiaronk belvedere, or you can head toward the Mount Royal Cross and continue from there. Paths intersect in this part of the park, so check your location as you set out.
The address is 1576 Voie Camillien-Houde. There is a dedicated parking lot, as well as street parking nearby. The entrance and parking lot are wheelchair accessible.
