The quest
Skip the patio. Stand on public ground at Mont-Royal for the end of the day, then walk out the way you came.
Steps
- Arrive at Mont-Royal twenty minutes before sunset. Stay on public ground — not a bike lane, not a road deck.
- Watch until the disk is gone. Name three lights that stay on.
- Leave the way you came. Do not climb railings or cut through private docks.
Why this is on the board
Mont-Royal is one of the spots south-east of centre, Montreal where Montreal actually faces the sky. You get the last colour of the day and a few minutes of standing still a patio will not sell you.
Safety. Public ground only. Map data goes stale — if a rail, hour, or closure disagrees, leave. Not a guided tour.
