The Boisé du Tremblay is a wooded area in Longueuil, Quebec, Canada. The wooded area is located partially in the borough of Le Vieux-Longueuil and partially within the city of Boucherville.
The territory of the woods is 267 hectares (660 acres), of which 174 hectares (430 acres) belongs to the City of Longueuil.[1]
The Boisé du Tremblay's biodiversity is considered to be unique within the Montérégie region. It is part of the blue-green infrastructure of Greater Montreal as well as the Mont Saint-Bruno Forest Corridor. It is home to numerous species of flora and fauna, notably the Western chorus frog.[2]
In January 2012, the City of Longueuil requested that the Boisé du Tremblay be recognized as a Wildlife Reserve by the Quebec Ministry of Natural Resources and Wildlife.[1]
