Greenbelt (Ottawa/Gatineau)

Ottawa is fortunate enough to have a publicly owned greenbelt; it is a 20,000-hectare expanse of land, including wetlands, farmlands and forests.

Hiking opportunities abound in the Greenbelt: the trail network extends over 100 km and many include small picnic areas. Admission to the Greenbelt is free.

The Greenbelt includes Stoney Swamp Conservation Area, Piney Forest, and the Green’s Creek.
