I grew up with this lovely park in my backyard Only difference is that drive through by pavilion was a popular place for hot dogs and ice cream when I was young.





Really pretty, though a smaller than I thought it would be.





Plenty of paths, beautiful vistas





Nice place for picnic with friends and family





Beautiful spot for a wedding ceremony. View over river is lovely.





A beautiful park with great character and some nice seclusion from the road.





Great view especially at night, wish if there was more parking spots.





This is my favorite spot in Ottawa to hang out and enjoy the beautiful scenery! Amazing place





Perfect place to rest while biking!





Such a cool place! Would be amazing to get married there. Great place to take a walk in nature within the city. Especially beautiful during the fall. There is a big open field so feel free to bring a ball or a Frisbee to throw. Respect the space and throw out your garbage please!





Great place to go for a walk.





Nice view evening and nights as well





Expensive area.





Beautiful view





Legendary sunset location, overlooking Gatineau and the Ottawa River





Some of the park needs attention, but it seems to be heading in the right direction. Washrooms are relatively clean, and security passes through regularly.





Nice park with a chalet, it has got large area. Good place for time pass, playing for kids or you can also arrange some get together, parties in the park. Small programs can be arranged in the chalet, with the river at back.





Great place to start your Ottawa visit





It's a beautiful location





Not much to see. Nice area park to rest and do picnic... close to Rideau Hall





Amazing view of Gatineau.





Best kept little secret. So beautiful and idyllic!

Nice view and good place to BBQ





(Translated) An oasis of beauty in the heart of the city, too bad it is reserved only for the residents of this upscale neighborhood. (Original) Un oasis de beauté en pleine ville dommage que ce soit réservé que pour les résidents de ce quartier huppé.





It's a nice place for scenery.





A nice place to stop along the parkway. Sad to see the Gatineau side with the flood devastation.





A beautiful place but the main shade didn’t have a good smell.





Nice viewing spot





It's too rich too describe, you'd have to explore the architecture yourself. The building is amzingly flawless and speaks for itself. It's great for anything that means moments, history, statements, photographs, and events like weddings. Toilets are available too and a nice drinkable water fountain, this amongst the beautiful field it boats next to out governor generals headquarters. Amusez-vous ! Ox





Great place to chill





Beautiful View of the Gatineau Shore from the Lookout





Very nice club





(Translated) The view of Gatineau river, Rue Jacques-Cartier bike path & Quai-des-Légendes from Rockcliffe Lookout was beathtaking. (Original) The view of Gatineau river, Rue Jacques-Cartier bike path & Quai-des-Légendes from Rockcliffe Lookout was beathtaking.

This is a great place, to take some visitors to the city. You have a nice park, some nice statues, some nice monuments, and you get a nice view of the Ottawa River. A little further in the park you also get a nice view of 24 Sussex the residence of the Prime Minister if you were actually staying there at this time.

It's a little hidden away and therefore not usually overcrowded. Mostly shaded with great views of the Ottawa River and Quebec. A great place for a picnic!





Very beautiful park, not too big however. There is a water fountain which I liked. There are some plaques explaining the history of the art, and you can wander off into the neighbourhood to look at all the embassy houses and manors! Fairly close to New Edinburgh too if you want to grab a bite to eat or have a drink.





Still lovely after all these years.





Great breakfast and always great service from Sue.





Just seat there





Nice for a quick stop on the scenic drive. Be sure to walk down the gravel path towards the boathouse. You be able to get some great shots of the Ottawa River.

If you wanna face the sunset and just relax and let it go, that is the place you are looking for. Very peaceful spot, relatively quiet, the water scene & the right amount of tree allow you to just sit and enjoy the best of it.

Really cute lookout! Bet its beautiful during the day! I happen to go when the sun was down. Take your guy or gal here with a picnic basket and I'm sure you'll impress.





Great place to spend an afternoon. Lots of picnic tables, an open field for kids, washrooms, a covered pavilion, and plenty of tree shade. Bring your own BBQ and enjoy the river scenery. Parking can run out especially if other groups are there at the same time, but there's an overflow lot nearby.





Gorgeous historical neighborhood. Incredible view of the river.





I always like the Rockcliffe Rockeries, the flowers that are panted are lovely, it’s a hidden gem. I love to walk my dogs here not many people which is great. The ruins are interesting I didn’t know they were there till awhile ago.

The best park in Ottawa. Much more beautiful in fall.

Beautiful space





Nice park overlooking the Ottawa river! A calm place especially in the morning. Sometimes it can be crowded though. Good place for a mini outing/BBQ etc. with family.





Nice views, fun for a.quick stop





Having seen historic ruins and fountains in Europe and Greece before I found the Rockeries to be disappointing and not that interesting. I think only worth a 5 minute look and to take some silly photos. And yes I did take a few of those while I was there lol Yet the Rockcliffe park is awesome with its great space to walk your dog, look at flowers and enjoy the open fields. I suggest that if you are in this area you walk to the nearby RCMP horse stables and go to the Aviation museum. Also bring a picnic lunch and blanket so that you can have fun bonding with nature. If you like my reviews, photos or videos give them a thumbs up. And don't ruin your day with negative thoughts lol





Beautiful and quiet place with a stellar view of the Ottawa River at the point where the Gatineau River merges in. I was very pleasantly surprised to find that there were cast iron chairs and a table. We ate our lunch there and greatly enjoyed the experience!





Beautiful sites!





It's okay, no place to walk or see the water!





A bit removed but a nice view





Spectacular place and view it is breathtaking views. It has a big and great lake to enjoy your boat or any water toys

Beautiful heritage pavilion, visit only if you got spare time





This was the beautiful location for your May wedding. What the pictures online don't show is that a lot of wind can funnel in from over the Ottawa river, which can be chilly in the shade or cause problems with decorations and the like. Also we didn't have access to any electricity, which might have been nice. But the location is clean and lovely, and most park visitors are respectful of your special day. Definitely a memorable location for such a memorable occasion!





Very good place to view the sunset over the Ottawa river





Relax





Nice park and view across the river to gatineau but washrooms closed for season.





Great





Beautiful gardens





Beautiful spot in the city to sit back relax, go for a walk with your family or friends and take the dog. There are picnic tables around the grounds, but not in pavilion. Friends used public washroom, stated ok but some t.p on the floor. There are paved walkways, but I didn't see any ramps or accessible ways to enter the pavilion.





Nice view.





Good view





Beautiful... perfect for long walks or biking... love to come in the fall.





No more tables and chairs in the pavilion. But it's amazing place.

Amazing outdoor experience.
