Rideau Canal to Close for Skating
We got a total of tens days this year, only a small portion open and never rated better than "poor". Most years get 40-50 days, the full 7.8 open and rathed at least "good" or better.
The Rideau Canal Skateway is currently open from Bank to Pretoria. It will close at 10 pm this evening, Sunday, February 25, 2024. Thank you to everyone who came out to enjoy the Skateway and to our concessions and hard working crews who made the most of challenging weather conditions.
Caution! Uneven ice surface with rough patches and many pressure cracks. Due to the mild temperatures, the ice surface has deteriorated and is now soft.
