Champlain Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Spanning the Ottawa River between Ottawa and Gatineau, the Champlain Bridge provides wide views across one of Canada's most important waterways. From here you can watch boats navigating the river, spot waterbirds along the shoreline, and take in views of wooded islands and the surrounding riverbanks. Opened in 1928 and rebuilt in the early 1970s, the bridge remains a key link between Ontario and Quebec while offering a unique perspective over the Ottawa River's broad channel.

Gatineau Park Toilets

Highlight • Rest Area

Warning!!! Toilets in Gatineau Park: Okay if you need to use it urgently, but the experience will be very bad. A chemical toilet is 1000x better than this. A smell you'll remember for a long time!!!

The hardest and most beautiful riding day so far. Gatineau park is glorious. So big and diverse that you can spent hours without seeing a soul.
Some trails are demanding and rough so could require some pushing.
One that I would suggest skipping is trail 36. Most of it is pure big rocks. Far beyond enjoyment and on places dangerous. …
