Amenity details from City of Ottawa open data (Jan 2024).
A small man-made hill with a gentle slope and plenty of open room at the bottom, best suited to younger sledders — but only the west-side run is approved, and the fence on the south side plus the padded posts, benches and trees mean keeping everyone pointed the right way. Spillover light from the outdoor rink buys you a little time after dark. There's no parking, so plan on walking in from the neighbourhood.
