A lookout is located on its southern face, providing views over Westmount, Montreal, the south shore and the Eastern Townships.

Summit woods

McGill University owned the land on Westmount Summit in the late nineteenth century, which it used for a botanical garden. In the early twentieth century, McGill donated the land to the City of Westmount on the condition that it become a bird sanctuary. Today, there are about 180 species of bird on Westmount Summit.[1]

There are also many species of wild plant and flowers located in the summit woods.[2]

The summit woods are bordered on all sides by Summit Circle, a notable residential portion of Westmount.
