Amenity details from City of Ottawa open data (Jan 2024).
The north side of the hill is the one to use — a gradual medium slope with a long runout onto the soccer field, which makes it forgiving for younger sledders. Stay off the south face, where trees and park fixtures get in the way; the posts and cans on both ends are padded, but it's still worth pointing out to kids. With no lights here, plan on a daytime trip, and there's parking right nearby.
