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.

Consejos para la ciudad

Cómo moverse

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.

Walking

You can walk to a nearby coffee shop (Figaro, 5 minutes), or grocery store (Farm Boy, 10 minutes). A walk to the Ottawa General Hospital or CHEO (the children's hospital) will take you about 15 minutes.
