Ottawa

Rockcliffe Park is one of Ottawa's most exclusive neighbourhoods, and the Rockeries are its landscaped rock gardens, at their best when the spring bulbs come through. The lookout gives you the Ottawa River and the Gatineau hills.

Stornoway is the official residence of the Leader of the Opposition in Canada, in Ottawa's leafy Rockcliffe Park. You can only see it from the street, but it is a quiet reminder that the neighbourhood houses much of the country's political establishment.

Escape Bicycle Tours & Rentals

Standard/Tier2

You wake up in the wrong room, with the wrong memories—and someone is chasing you. You’re Jackson, an Ottawa local who was supposed to meet your best friend Elsa last night. Now you’re sprinting past mansion gates and embassy crests, pockets full of odd clues (a pet collar, a coffee receipt, a handwritten note) and a headache that won’t quit.Follow your footprints through Rockcliffe Park—Ottawa’s most prestigious, story-stacked neighbourhood—where flags, coats of arms, sculptures, and stone guardians become your guideposts. Decode what happened between the Norwegian gateposts and the US ambassador’s residence, piece together the elephants, harps, lions and keys, and find out why “Lornado” is inked on your skin.It’s a thriller wrapped in a neighbourhood tour: part mystery, part heritage walk, part international scavenger hunt. Lace up—or hop on a bike or e-scooter—and retrace the wildest night you (don’t) remember.
