D ifficulty:
Approximately 25 km / 15.2 miles
Rideau Canal, Dows Lake, Ottawa River
Easy to Moderate
Care should be taken to avoid the wake of power boats during peak season.
R oute Description:
On this leg of the journey, the winding canal is lined with overhanging trees and the density
of residential development along the shoreline increases as you approach Ottawa. The first
stop is Black Rapids Lockstation, a peaceful oasis in the urban sprawl of Ottawa. This is one
of only three hydraulic locks on the Rideau – the conversion here having taken place in 1969.
The next lockstation is Hogs Back. This is where the natural channel of the Rideau River
diverts the canal into an artificial channel for the rest of the journey into Ottawa. From here to
the Ottawa River, the canal to the west is man-made, while to the east the river continues to
flow as it always has to the Rideau Falls and into the Ottawa River. The top lock at Hogs Back
is a flood guard lock – only one of two on the Rideau Rideau. It is not used for lifting, but
rather as protection from spring flooding of the main lift lock.
Hartwells Lockstation is next, less than 2 km downstream. This flight of 2 locks sits adjacent
to the campus of Carleton University and the Central Experimental Farm – an agricultural
facility, working farm and National Historic Site. Travelling towards Ottawa, Hartwells is the
last lockstation you will encounter at which camping is permitted. Beyond Hartwells is Dow’s
Lake, where at the pavilion you can find docking, dining and recreational equipment rentals.
The last stop on this epic paddling adventure is Ottawa Lockstation. The magnificent flight
of 8 locks at this location is framed by Canada’s Parliament buildings on one side and the
impressive Chateau Laurier hotel on the other. The largest single set of locks on the entire
Rideau system, it provides a lift of 24 metres. The old Commissariat building at this site (the
business/supply office used during the building of the Rideau Canal) is the oldest stone
surviving building in Ottawa and now houses the Bytown Museum – well worth a visit.
Within a short walk of the lockstation you can find a variety of galleries, museums, attractions,
accommodations, shopping and dining. We hope you have enjoyed your journey!
Paddlers have the option to follow the route from either Kingston – Ottawa OR Ottawa – Kingston.
If travelling from Ottawa to Kingston, please start from route 12 and work through to route 1.
