"Montmorency Falls within Parc de la Chute-Montmorency near Quebec City is actually higher than its famous Canadian cousin, Niagara Falls. It is 272 feet high, dropping from the mouth of the Montmorency River into the St. Lawrence River. A new 590-foot floating walkway, made of steel and concrete, will open at the base of the waterfall, allowing visitors to have an immersive experience. Despite being semi-submerged, the walkway is designed to resist water-flow pressure and adjust to the basin's water levels. The park is easily accessible from Quebec City, being a 15-minute drive north along the east banks of the St. Lawrence River. About 970,000 visitors travel to the park each year. Admission to Montmorency Falls State Park is $8.50 for adults, $7.75 for seniors, and free for children. The walkway will be accessible to those in wheelchairs or with strollers." - Travel + Leisure Editors

I went at the end of December. Water was frozen and part of the waterfall, too. It's a beautiful place. Perfect for pictures. Gorgeous views. You can walk and get close to the bottom of the waterfall. We went down in the cable car, and you can use it to go up and down as many times as you want for a fee. There is a little gift shop with a coffee shop and snacks. On the top, you can walk across the suspension bridge, which is directly over the falls and take in the scenery.

Visited Parc de la Chute Montmorency on December 23rd, 2024. We arrived on a Monday and found that it wasn’t overcrowded, which was nice for a more peaceful experience. Unfortunately, the main service office was closed, meaning all activities and services were unavailable during our visit. Despite that, we were still able to walk around and explore the park, passing by the blocked areas like everyone else. The waterfall itself is stunning, and the surrounding scenery is absolutely beautiful, even in the winter. I’d definitely recommend visiting during the spring or summer to enjoy all the activities, but even in December, it’s worth seeing the breathtaking views. A great spot to explore if you’re in the Quebec City area!

This is a great tourist attraction. The water fall is amazing to watch. There are several different areas to observe the falls from. There is a fair amount of walking. There are some optional areas you may visit that do require lots of stair climbing. Nice park for the kiddos nearby.

This is a full 5 plus. It's an incredible waterfall that is higher than Niagara falls. You can walk up to the top or take the cable car Either way the view is spectacular. There water going over the falls can fill an Olympic size pool every second! Another not to be missed sight/site in the Quebec city area .

We rented bicycles in Old Quebec and biked the 8 miles to the stunning Montmorency Falls. It was such a fun adventure! After the ride, we took the cable car up, which was surprisingly stable and reassuring for someone nervous about heights. Walking the platforms around the falls allowed us to really feel the power of the water—an unforgettable experience!

It was a nice waterfall. You can enter from the bottom (big hike, with multiple steps). You can take the cable cart or walk. We decided to drive to the top as we had kids and a senior. They also have a zip line over the water fall. The view was amazing. You could also walk to the bottom of the falls or close to it (a board walk). The hike from the bottom to the top had many steps. It’s better to hike down and take the cable cart up, but some did hike up.

The falls are very close to Québec City and are perfect to visit on a beautiful sunny day. I’ve been there a few times, and I always enjoy seeing the falls and walking along the trail behind them. There are quite a few stairs to climb if you start from the bottom and want to experience the falls up close, even getting a little wet from the water spray. However, you can also drive directly to the top, which is more manageable.

Great place to visit and spend a Day in summer, dont use the tope car, take the Stairs, enjoy the views. The glass bridge in front of falls is a nice addition to read a book.
