On the shore of the Gulf is the fertile Saint-Lawrence River Valley. To the east we also find the Richelieu River Valley. The terrain is moderately rugged to the Southwest, near the American border. The Northwest part of the region is bordered by the Saint-Lawrence to the south and the Ottawa River to the north. A large proportion of the trails are in the plain. There is plenty of woodland, mostly deciduous, and in particular, maple bush. The part located between Châteauguay and Boucherville immediately to the south of Montreal is very densely populated.
To the Southwest and Southeast of Montreal on the South Shore of the Saint-Lawrence and the Ottawa Rivers, bordered by Ontario to the west, the State of New York to the south and the Eastern Townships and the Centre-du-Québec regions to the east. Served principally by Highway 20 from the Ontario border, Montreal and Quebec City, the 40 from Montreal and Ontario and the 15 from the American border, and Highways 112, 116 132 and 138 (from New York State). It is possible to access the trail network from various points.
