The 'Îles Laval' are an island grouping in the
Rivière des Prairies in southwestern Quebec. Located northeast of
Île Bizard between the
Island of Montreal and
Île Jésus, they include Île Bigras, Île Pariseau, Île Verte and Île Ronde.
Formerly an independent municipality ('Les Îles-Laval'), they became part of the city of
Laval on
August 6,
1965.
The
Deux-Montagnes commuter train line crosses the islands, which are served by the
Île-Bigras station. A road bridge links the islands with the
Sainte-Dorothée district of Laval, on Île Jésus.
