About
A walk along the Rideau Canal, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, starting at the flight of Ottawa Locks between Parliament Hill and the Château Laurier. Seven outdoor exhibit sites along the canal pathway tell its story, from the locks to the Shaw Centre, Pretoria Bridge, Lansdowne, Dow's Lake, the Experimental Farm and Hartwells Lockstation. Walking the promenade is free year round, and Parks Canada offers a free self guided tour app.
