Ottawa Highlights 3.5 Hour Bike Tour

Set out to discover Ottawa's major draws, its landmark sites as well as its more tucked-away treasures, on this guided bike outing lasting 3 to 3.5 hours. The route covers roughly 20 to 24 kilometres (13 to 15 miles) along safe cycling paths, and an e-bike can be added on request. In the saddle, you'll ride beside the Rideau Canal and Lansdowne Park, roll through the Old Ottawa South neighbourhood, the Arboretum, the Dow's Lake and Little Italy area, pass the War Museum and plenty of other spots besides. A snack break is planned at a local café to recharge partway through. This activity suits families beautifully, along with visitors who have limited time, or anyone wanting to explore the city beyond its downtown core alone. It's a lovely, active and sociable way to get a feel for the spirit of Ottawa on two wheels while you go.
