Amenity details from City of Ottawa open data (Jan 2024).
A big man-made hill with long run-offs, but only the north slope toward the soccer field is in play — the east face drops toward Holitman Drive, so the padded posts, wrapped rock and straw bales along the sidewalk are there to keep sleds out of traffic. Spill from the street lights means you can still get a few runs in after dark, though it's not proper lighting, so stick to the approved side and know the hill before the sun goes down.
