South Ottawa is home to two major public service complexes. The Ottawa International Airport, with its hotels and convention centres, is the central hub for the area’s travellers. The facilities host a variety of events throughout the year.

You’ll find hiking and biking trails. In the winter you can ice skate on public rinks or find a sledding hill. If you’re looking for ball sports, you’ll find tennis and basketball courts along with baseball diamonds.

 

Nature lovers will be thrilled by the Sawmill Creek Wetlands area. Mooney’s Bay Park offers bike paths that serve cross country skiers in the winter. It also has a beach, plenty of room to picnic, and is home to the Terry Fox Athletic Facility.

 

There are bountiful activities for the entire family in South Ottawa. Along with seasonal celebrations and festivals, you’ll find a large complex of Asian markets. You can visit the Canadian Science and Technology Museum, or hit the shops at Billings Bridge or South Keys Shopping Centres.

 

The prestigious Ottawa Hunt and Golf Club has been part of the community for over a century. It has world-class curling and golf facilities.
