Your free outdoor gym in Laval

While strolling through some of Laval's parks, you may have noticed metal and concrete structures of all kinds, such as symmetrical or asymmetrical bars, ladders and benches of various heights, and modules reminiscent of the hebertism courses of our childhood.

Atmosphäre and Trekfit are behind the design of these outdoor workout modules, which are accessible to all at all times. There's no need to book: just turn up at the park to work out. It's user-friendly and creates a sense of community among users.

An ecological trail by Atmosphäre

As of fall 2023, the Parc Bernard-Landry features a new outdoor training area, designed by Atmosphäre. This ecological wooden course is accessible to all skill levels. It includes a climbing wall, a horizontal ladder, an over/under course, a balance beam and the Double Turbo Challenge, offering a complete workout.

An interactive panel provides instructions and exercises, with QR codes for additional resources such as video tutorials and personalized training plans.

The durable, environmentally-friendly Robinia wood equipment blends harmoniously into the park's natural surroundings.

Trekfit courses

Street furniture from Trekfit is designed for functional training. It lets you work the whole body, using your own body weight as resistance. With Trekfit, there's no need for dumbbells: fluid movements engage several muscle groups simultaneously, providing a complete and effective workout.

In addition to basic training, Trekfit also opens up a whole world of possibilities, as accessories can be added to the modules to vary the sessions. For example, you can work with medicine balls or attach TRX or AK-type straps (from Quebec-based company La voie athlétique), which enable a wider variety of exercises.

Each park is unique, with circuits of between 6 and 16 stations, each with a sign explaining the exercises proposed, which can be completed at one of two levels (low or high intensity).

In addition, Trekfit offers a free application which allows you to locate installations and choose from a range of programs adapted for adults, seniors and wheelchair users, whether for fitness, weight loss, aerobic, anaerobic or resistance training.
