The discovery trail is punctuated by eight experiential installations that guide visitors along an immersive journey through the Îles-de-Boucherville provincial park, just south of Montreal. Named according to their respective shapes and the themes they embody, The Wheel, The Prow, The Landing net, The Barn, The Tower, The Current, The Carousel, and The Channels, were each inspired by the area’s  history and heritage,. Some provide contemplative spaces, while others offer playful and educational areas, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in the spirit of the islands in a meditative and entertaining atmosphere.
