Lake Boivin

Highlight • Lake

Lake Boivin sits at the heart of the Lake Boivin Nature Interpretation Centre and forms part of an important wetland ecosystem in Granby. Fed by the North Yamaska River, the lake’s shallow waters and marshy shoreline attract a wide variety of birds and wildlife. Trails and boardwalks around the lake offer peaceful views across the water and reeds, making this one of the best spots in the park for birdwatching and quiet nature walks. Keep an eye out for ducks, herons, and turtles along the shoreline.

Lemieux Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

Built in 1967 after a severe drought, the reservoir serves as a backup water supply for the city of Granby. La Granbyenne trail passes between the reservoir and the nearby North Yamaska River, creating a beautiful waterside stretch with open views across the water as you continue around Lac Boivin.

Lake Boivin

Highlight • Lake

There's so much to do at Lac Boivin. On the eastern shore you have the lakeside town of Granby, complete with restaurants, cafes and galleries. A swim in the lake after a day riding or hiking is a must.

On the northern shore you'll find the impressive 'Centre d'interprétation de la nature du lac Boivin', an official Important Bird Area (IBA), including a marsh which is a refuge and resting place for many birds. It's accessible all year round, enabling visitors to discover a wide variety of flora and fauna.

And on the eastern shore you'll find the start of the Parc National de la Yamaska. It's a natural wonderland, but also a playground for outdoor enthusiasts. The cycling, hiking, swimming and boating are second to none.

I love the Granby trail, the people are nice, the patrollers are kind and there is a lot of activity in the surrounding area.

Lake Boivin viewpoint

Highlight • Viewpoint

This boardwalk viewpoint along Lac Boivin offers open views across the lake and surrounding wetlands. A few benches make it a nice place to sit and take in the scenery, with good chances of spotting birds and other wildlife on the water. The platform is fully exposed to the sun, so sun protection is recommended especially on warmer days.
