Gatineau Park
North of the capital Ottawa, Gatineau is considered a secondary center of the capital, where many government officials working in the capital live. Located in Quebec, French is used more than English among the staff working here.
High Park has a long history and beautiful scenery. It is located halfway between Toronto and Cuihu Mountain Villa, covering an area of 361 square kilometers. The main attractions include the La Champlain lookout, a 360-degree observation deck, a colorful forest, and a fairy-tale atmosphere. Pink Lake and the Prime Minister's residence were overlooked due to the crowds. There are several observation decks along the way where you can park and enjoy the view, but none compare to La Champlain.
A walk along the Ruines Carbide Willson trail is also worth it. Enjoy the maple leaves along the way, and the scenery by the lake is beautiful. You can also see various wild mushrooms.
