Giro veloce in bici da Ottawa a Gatineau

Set off from Ottawa’s vibrant downtown, a city well-known for its scenic bike paths and the historic Parliament Hill. You’ll pedal north on mostly smooth, paved cycleways—perfect for a relaxed ride and suitable for bikes of all kinds. Crossing the Ottawa River, you’re treated to some of the best views of the city and Gatineau hills beyond. The route stays safely off busy roads almost the entire way, making it an ideal option for newer cyclists or those looking for a stress-free commute.

You'll gradually climb about 70 meters in elevation, but you’ll enjoy even more descending as you get closer to Gatineau—a city with a charming downtown and a gateway to the beautiful Gatineau Park. With 98% of the route paved (mostly asphalt), you won’t have to worry about bumpy surfaces or tricky transitions. In about 12 km, you’ll experience the ideal blend of city sights, riverside scenery, and a refreshing cross-provincial ride—all in less than 90 minutes at a casual pace!
