Each season over one million skaters take the picturesque journey down the Rideau Canal’s
famous 7.8 km long Skateway – that’s the equivalent to 90 Olympic-sized ice rinks, and the world’s largest! From January through to the end of February, you can slide, twirl and whisk along the ice under the watchful gaze of Canada’s impressive Parliament Buildings and Chateau Laurier hotel. Weekends in February usher in Winterlude, the capital’s annual seasonal celebration, while toasty chalets and stands selling delicious BeaverTails, hot chocolate and maple taffy welcome you along the route.
