EXPLORE

Famous for its Parliament Buildings and galleries, Ottawa is a destination that offers adventure, too. Get some steps in and tackle the breathtaking Wolf Trail in Gatineau Park, winding through mature forests and scenic lookouts. Craving a rush? Join Esprit's whitewater rafting trips (1), which carve through exhilarating rapids and deliver unforgettable views along the Ottawa River. For cultural thrills, keep an eye out for concert fun on Canada Day - this year, Sarah McLachlan headlines the annual show that takes place at LeBreton Flats.
