Mont Bellevue

Mont Bellevue, a 333 m mountain in Sherbrooke, Quebec, is the centerpiece of Mont-Bellevue Park, a 200-hectare natural and recreation area with about 30 km of trails and a summit known for its “beautiful view.” Its modern development was closely linked to the nearby Université de Sherbrooke after 1954, and public recreation expanded with the installation of a ski lift in 1959. Since 1976, Sherbrooke has managed the park as a year-round destination for skiing, hiking, cycling, tennis, archery, and other outdoor activities. As the city’s largest park, it is also valued for its wildlife and plant life, while facing environmental pressures such as invasive European black slugs.
