Leave your car at home and come have fun in Laval

We love winter for a host of different reasons, some of them a little bizarre (e.g., because we can spend 12 hours watching a series without feeling guilty). However, we rarely mention the fact that we have to clear out our car and wait a thousand years for the windows to defrost. So stick to the pleasures of winter and leave your car at home.

Come to Laval by public transit and arrive practically on the doorstep of your favorite activities.

Then, for retro sports enthusiasts, there's the BG Laval 2000 bowling alley located nearby, as well as the Bleu Blanc Bouge skating rink skating rink or the Bernard-Landry Park for those who want a little more action.

Finally, from Cartier station, you can also satisfy your taste buds at Kyomi (hello to fine Asian cuisine) and Les Insulaires Microbrasseurs (hello to incredible Laval microbrewery beer).
