Ottawa River Pathway

About 30 km of the Trans Canada Trail wends its way from Kanata through the Greenbelt west of Ottawa and along the Ottawa River to downtown Ottawa.

From there the trail continues eastward across the Alexandra Bridge to Quebec.

You can start at the Vanier Parkway and St. Patrick st. and follow the river for the 30km. Information provided by the National Capital Commission website.
