Parc canin de la Pointe-aux-Lièvres

FreeOff-leash permitted

Parc canin de la Pointe-aux-Lièvres is one of Ville de Québec's five official off-leash dog spaces, a fully fenced park along the Rivière Saint-Charles in Limoilou. It has a hard gravel running surface, separate sections, benches and waste stations. The riverside setting keeps things cleaner and drier than most urban dog runs.

Why it made the list

A fully fenced, riverside off-leash park minutes from downtown — ideal for city dogs that need a secure free run.

Good to know before you go

Ville de Québec requires dogs to be registered with the city and wearing its medal to use canine spaces, leashed until inside the entrance airlock, with a maximum of two dogs per person. Municipal regulation prohibits use between 9 p.m. and 7 a.m. Access is free.

Practical notes

  • Register your dog with the city before visiting — the municipal medal is required.
  • The gravel surface means fewer muddy paws after rain.

What is available on site

Policies change without notice anyway, so confirm the current one with the venue before you travel, and keep your dog leashed anywhere that is not a signed off-leash area. Read the full disclaimer.
