TOP 5 TRAILS IN THE GATINEAU PARK // Things to do in Ottawa

- In this week's episode, I'm presenting my list of top 5 trails to hike in the Gatineau Park in 2020. While some trails are closed during the pandemic, these 5 trails remain accessible to the public. Hiking in the Gatineau Park is an awesome free activity (might have to pay for parking) to do in the National Capital Region of Canada during the summer.
Travel episode 15 - Filmed on Saturday, 1st of August 2020
All the information needed for these 5 hikes is available on the National Capital's Commission's website: ncc-ccn.gc.ca/places/hiking-a...
To have access to the Pink Lake trail, you must park on Notch road where this road intersects trail #15. Park in a legal parking spot and head in the direction of the Pink lake by taking trail 15, then 35. It should take you no more than 10 minutes to get to Pink Lake.
I also recommend you check out the app All Trails (not sponsered) which offers valuable information on all these trails.

Boy, do I miss Gatineau Park. I was there in the 80s. Used to live in Ottawa area and went either to picnic or hiking or xcountry skiing there.
Thanks! I was looking for a comprehensive list of available hikes with the parkway closures and this is one of the only ones I could find :)
Hey Jen! Glad you enjoyed it! Being that I am an abid hiker and spend most of my time in the Gatineau Park, I thought it would be important to share these trails. I will update the list next summer and probably add 3 more trails. Have a great hike and thanks for following me for more travel episode on the region.
Brandon📽🇨🇦
Love your post we had fun

Cool, my G Grandparents and my GG Grandparents are buried in Luskville. Grandad was from Eardley, specifically off the Eardley/Masham Rd near Ramsay Lake.
Really cool trail reviews
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it! Nothing better than a good trail hike
@@BrandonOnTheGo I totally agree I'm one of these days I'll get back on my other channel and start doing outdoor videos again but right now I'm focusing on this channel
@@mikey24972 totally understadable. Lot of work already having one channel
One more place to add to my bucket list!! Thank you for sharing! 😊Have a great day!
Thanks! The Gatineau Park is a must do in the National Capital Region of Canada. Have a great week to you too!
Brandon
Love wolf trail so much!!!! Do it at least once a week!
It is indeed an awesome trail! I would do it more ofter if parking was free 😉 thanks for watching and stay tuned for more travel content on the region and on the Gatineau Park!

Brandon On The Go actually I feel like the parking fee is only for peek times during the season! I first ever did the trail back in April I believe and didn’t have to pay, which I thought was due to covid! But I actually just did the trail yesterday and both parking machines are gone as well as the sign reminding you to pay :)
@@iloveshoes2000 well that is some excellent news! I might just go there this week than. I was last there in July and the ticket machine was still there. What is your favorite trail in the Gatineau Park?
Brandon On The Go my top favourite right now is definitely Wolf trail with pink lake and skyline following close behind!
Lusk cave was very lovely as well! Wish I had been able to explore the cave a bit more but I didn’t have proper clothing for the water and some area the water would have been at least to my bellybutton! Carbide Wilson ruins was really nice too but quite short!
@@iloveshoes2000 those are all great trails! Have you done the Luskville Falls trails? I will be filming in Chelsea in a week from now and showcase the Ruins trail and some of the best food options in Chelsea. Have you been to the Plaisance National Park? Thanks for watching and for supporting me by subscribing to my channel!
For those that have been hiking in the Gatineau Park, are there any other trail deserving of being in the top 5 list of best trails?
Hi Brandon! How do we get to notch 35 going to pink Lake?
On planifie d’aller là cette fin de semaine merci pour ton top 5
Salut Sylvain! Si tu seras dans le coins de Gatineau cette fin de semaine et tu voudrais qu'on se rencontre ou pour des recommendations, écris-moi sur Facebook ou Instagram 🙌 je suis libre en après-midi samedi
@@BrandonOnTheGo Ça serait cool! Je te rejoins sur Messenger.
3.27 gymnocladus?
That’s it ????? You didn’t do the obrian
Are you related to Desiree Bingo?
No, sorry 😊
@@BrandonOnTheGovery similar! Great video thanks
At 5:03 of this video you tell your viewers that they can park on Notch street to access the trails that lead to Pink lake. I think you may piss off a few people if they follow this advice cause I know a bunch of people that parked on Notch street and got ticketed by the Chelsea Police cause all along that street on the shoulders of the road it says no parking allowed. Is there a secret spot on that road that you are aware of where the Chelsea Police will not ticket you cause its really a chance you would be taking. I know some people have gotten lucky and not ticketed but they were likely just there for a brief moment. The Chelsea police are infamous for handing out tickets when it comes to the time of the month where they have to meet their quotas. These buggers are more like tax collectors then police officers.
Hi! Has this video is a year old, the situation has indeed changed. I always recommend my followers to check out my website for all the up to date information on all the trails in the Outaouais 🙌. Thanks for sharing
@@BrandonOnTheGo No problem, just trying to help out, and not have anyone mad at anyone. :)
Great video Brandon! I love watching your adventures in one of my favourite areas of Canada! If your interested I do similar style videos in the maritimes, feel free to check them out.
Thank you so much. Glad you enjoyed it! I most certainly will check you channel out!
