The canal is a UNESCO world heritage sight. In the summer months, head to the Chateau Laurier and watch the locks in action as they raise and lower boats. In winter, skate part (or all!) of the 7kms while sipping on hot chocolate and eating Beavertails or poutine.

In the spring there's a tulip festival; in the summer you can rent a kayak and explore the Rideau Canal; and in the winter you can rent skates and drink hot chocolate on the ice.

Råd om byen

Slik kommer du deg rundt

Public Transport and Uber

Public Transport is run by OC Transpo (https://www.octranspo.com/en/). The closest bus stop is 350m away. The closest LRT station is Hurdman. The central Ottawa Train Station (Tremblay) is a 5 minute drive away. The central station is used more for long distance trains (https://www.viarail.ca/en). Uber works very well in Ottawa. Please note, however, that although it is very close and well integrated with Ottawa, Gatineau is a different city with different regulations and Uber is limited in Gatineau. Taxis work well from there.
