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

A small hill with gradual slopes — gentle enough for younger sledders, though only the west side is sanctioned, with padding on the trees that line the open run. Spillover light from the rink and path means you can stay out a little past dark, and there's parking on site.
