I grew up in Ottawa and visited the Rideau Canal many times. I skated on the Canal and I ate Mutual Dairy icecream while looking at the Canal when I was young and I enjoyed the views found along the Canal as well. It was great to see it again and see some of the tulips that are in bloom... More

whether you want to skate on it in the winter or walk along it or bike along it in the summer its what defines Ottawa. Pack a picnic and head to the canal! More

Take the boat tour to Dow's Lake. Worth your money as they explain some of the historical sites along the way as well as the history of the building of the canal. Very pleasant and relaxed boat ride. More

Ottawa is a gorgeous city, and the Rideau Canal is its finest jewel. I could walk or stroll along the canal everyday for hours. I have never visited it during winter, but during Sring it is beautiful, especially when the tulips are in blossom. No visit to Ottawa should skip a walk along the canal. More

Very beautiful, calming place to relax, in the winter you can skate on the canal, you can have coffee, hot chocolate, eat a beaver tail yum yum More
