Amenity details from City of Ottawa open data (Jan 2024).

The gentle slope and long, open run on the north face make this a forgiving hill for younger sledders — but that north side is the only approved part, with a large rock to the west, a parking lot cutting the run short on the east, and the road at the bottom of the south side. There's parking on site, and since the hill is unlit, plan on a daytime trip.
