If you’re anything like yours truly, by the time you’ve motored around Kingston and its several cleverly hidden speed traps where the highway divides, the 401 might be taking a wee bit of a toll on your soul. One of the nice features of the drive from T-O to MTL is its simplicity: turn onto the 401 east and drive straight until you get to downtown Montréal… voila!

Fortunately, they have a really cool feature that isn’t always obvious, yet is ideal for physically distanced travelling: large picnic and pet-friendly areas where you and the family can spread out. Typically located at the rear of the plaza, behind the big-rig parking lots, these spacious park-like areas are easy to overlook, but represent an oasis of calm where you can enjoy your packed lunch and/or take your pooch for a run.
