Rideau Canal
The 125-mile Rideau Canal was built in Ottawa as a commercial waterway between Lake Ontario and the Ottawa River. The canal became more of a site for boating and leisure activities in the 20th century. In 2007, this stone-walled canal became an UNESCO World Heritage site in recognition of its value as the oldest continuously operated canal system in North America. The best time to visit the Rideau Canal is during winter, when it freezes over and becomes the world’s largest ice-skating rink.
Ottawa River Provincial Park
The Ottawa River is one of the biggest whitewater rafting destinations in Canada. Some of the best spots to raft are along a section of river within Ottawa River Provincial Park, just outside the town of Foresters Falls, a 90-minute drive northwest of the city of Ottawa. Here, you’ll find both gentle courses and thrilling class IV and V rapids.
Voyageur Provincial Park
To see a gentler side of the powerful Ottawa River, head to Voyageur Provincial Park, one hour west of central Montreal. This 3,600-acre park, on the Ontario side of the river, is adjacent to the Carillon Dam, which transformed the upstream waters from rocky, perilous rapids into a placid reservoir. You’ll find swimming spots and two boat launches in the park, as well as canoe rentals.
