"Race through the heart of Ottawa, from downtown to Dows Lake, on the world’s largest ice skating natural rink. At nearly five miles long, the Rideau Canal Skateway is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a major winter attraction. It’s professionally maintained to ensure safety and there are plenty of rest areas where you can stop for a break and grab a hot chocolate." - Travel + Leisure Editors
