Mirabel brings together a range of travel interests: seasonal outdoor activities at Parc du Domaine-Vert, products from the community, maple traditions and go-karting at Complexe ICAR. When planning your trip, it’s worth distinguishing these themes by their timing. Some park activities are specifically tied to summer or winter, maple products are available year-round in the 2026 selection, and Mirabel fête l’érable du Québec takes place annually. If you’re looking for a hotel in Mirabel, you can first decide which of these occasions will be the deciding factor for your trip.

Choose nature experiences by season

Parc du Domaine-Vert covers 1,500 acres and is a place for outdoor activities. Options include Hébertisme. On warm summer days, visitors can use the swimming pool; in winter, they can go snowshoeing, enjoy free skating and go tobogganing. Comparing the seasons helps you choose: swimming is specifically for warm summer days, while the other three activities are winter options. Before your trip, check whether your preferred activity is available at that time.

Another natural highlight is Parc régional du Bois-de-Belle-Rivière. Its mission includes preserving and enhancing an exceptional natural area, as well as offering accessible outdoor, discovery and learning experiences for everyone. Compared with the specific seasonal activities at Parc du Domaine-Vert, this mission emphasizes conservation and learning. If you’re choosing Mirabel for its nature experiences, you can distinguish between clearly named park activities and a broader focus on nature, discovery and learning.

Maple products and traditions

In 2026, Marché du Terroir de Mirabel is located at Carrefour Bleu in Mirabel. This public indoor market offers products from producers and processors in Mirabel. Maple products are available year-round in the 2026 selection. This means you can include a visit to the market in your trip plans regardless of the time of year when the maple festival takes place.

The annual Mirabel fête l’érable du Québec is organized by Parc régional du Bois-de-Belle-Rivière. The festival highlights maple products and the traditions associated with them, and showcases new developments in both areas. By comparison, the market focuses on products from local producers and processors; the festival provides its own annual spotlight on maple products and traditions. Coordinate your festival visit with the organizer’s latest event information.

Go-karting at Complexe ICAR

SRA Karting is a karting center at Complexe ICAR in Mirabel. The facility includes three karting tracks, an exhibition hall, mechanical support and a driving school. This adds a distinct go-karting focus to the nature and food themes. While the activities at Parc du Domaine-Vert are organized by season, SRA Karting is centered on its three tracks and other facilities. If go-karting is the deciding factor for your trip, the center offers a specific reference point when choosing your destination.

These offerings answer the question of when and why to visit Mirabel in different ways: some park activities are seasonal, maple products are available year-round in the 2026 selection, and the maple festival takes place annually. The season matters for specific park activities; for the festival, the latest event information is important.
