Amenity details from City of Ottawa open data (Jan 2024).
Only the south-facing middle of this hill is cleared for sledding — the north, west and east sides run into trees and lampposts and cross a walking path, so it's worth getting your bearings before the first run. That approved side is a gentle grade with open space and a long runout, which suits younger sledders. With no lights and street parking only, plan it for daylight.
