Things to do in Vaudreuil-Dorion and Île-Perrot with kids
West of the island of Montreal, Vaudreuil-Dorion and Île-Perrot offer farms where you can pick your own fruit, a big play centre and, a bit farther, a sugar shack open year-round. Here are six family outings.
In short: in fall, Quinn Farm and Verger Labonté, neighbours on Perrot Boulevard; on rainy days, ZigZagZoo for ages 12 and under; year-round, Sucrerie de la Montagne in Rigaud.
