Your free outdoor gym in Laval

While walking through some of Laval’s parks, you may have already noticed all kinds of metal and concrete structures, such as symmetrical and asymmetrical bars, ladders and benches of various heights, and modules reminiscent of the obstacle courses from our childhood.

Atmosphäre and Trekfit are behind the design of these outdoor workout stations, which are open to everyone at any time. No need to make a reservation—just head to the park to work out. It’s a friendly atmosphere, and this approach fosters a sense of community among users.

An eco-friendly tour by Atmosphäre

Since the fall of 2023, the Bernard-Landry Park has offered a new outdoor training area, designed by Atmosphère. This eco-friendly 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 display provides instructions and exercises, along with QR codes for additional resources such as video tutorials and personalized workout plans.

The durable and eco-friendly black locust wood structures blend seamlessly into the park’s natural setting.

Trekfit Routes

Trekfit street fitness equipment is designed for functional training. It allows you to work your entire body using your own body weight as resistance. With Trekfit, there’s no need for dumbbells: fluid movements engage multiple muscle groups simultaneously, providing a complete and effective workout.

In addition to basic training, Trekfit also opens up a whole world of possibilities, as you can add accessories to the modules to mix up your workouts. For example, you can use medicine balls or attach TRX or AK straps (from the Quebec-based company La voie athlétique), which allow for a wider variety of exercises.

Each park is unique and features circuits with 6 to 16 stations, each equipped with signs explaining the exercises, which can be performed at two different intensity levels (low or high).

In addition, Trekfit offers a free app that lets you locate facilities and choose from programs tailored for adults, seniors, and people in wheelchairs, whether they’re looking to get in shape, lose weight, or do aerobic, anaerobic, or strength training.
