★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Le lieu historique national du Canada de la Première-Station-Géodésique est accessible à partir du stationnement du Mont King en environ trente minutes. Le sentier est assez accidenté et de difficulté moyenne. Il y a plusieurs marches bien entretenues qui mènent au sommet du mont King. Les vues sont à couper le souffle. Vous pourrez alors voir Hull, Aylmer, Luskville et bien sûr Ottawa au loin. Il y a quelques panneaux informatifs sur le chemin et un monument sur place. La plaque du monument est par contre temporairement enlevée pour l'instant.
The First Geodetic Station National Historic Site of Canada is accessible from the Mount King parking lot in about thirty minutes. The trail is quite rugged and of medium difficulty. There are several well-maintained steps that lead to the top of Mount King. The views are breathtaking. You will then be able to see Hull, Aylmer, Luskville and of course Ottawa in the distance. There are a few informative signs on the way and a monument on site. The plaque of the monument is on the other hand temporarily removed for the moment.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This stone cairn serves as a piece of Canadian history where the first land survey for topological measurements for engineering purposes took place. The measurements are used from multiple points around the country to help determine the shape of the earth by means of triangulation.
