All about Gatineau
Quebec’s fourth-largest city, Gatineau, lies on the province’s southern border, overlooking the roaring Ottawa River. Across the water lies the city of Ottawa — the other half of the region of “Ottawa-Gatineau.” And it makes sense to join the two: Both cities boast expansive parks, renowned museums, and a wealth of creative restaurants.
While it may have a French name, Gatineau is one of Canada’s most bilingual cities — more than 60 percent of its citizens are fluent in both English and French. But it’s Gatineau’s French side that comes through in its restaurant scene. Foie gras and tartare make frequent appearances on menus. A city of arts and culture, Gatineau offers regular exhibits at Galerie Montcalm and theatre productions at the Théâtre de l’Île. The second most-visited museum in Canada, the Canadian Museum of History, makes its home in Gatineau as well.
What are the top things to do in Gatineau?
Gatineau Park
At 361 square kilometres, Gatineau Park could be a city of its own. It has lakes and beaches, nearly 200 kilometres of hiking trails, and cross-country ski paths to explore in the winter. The Mackenzie King Estate offers a tearoom and tours of its historic grounds.
Wakefield Village
Just 25 minutes northwest of Gatineau lies Wakefield, a small village on the Gatineau River founded by Scottish and Irish settlers in the early 1800s. Today, cafes, galleries, and the sounds of the river make the village a pleasant place to stroll, and the brightly painted covered bridge is a brilliant spot for a photo or two.
Encan Larose Flea Market
Founded over 60 years ago, the biggest flea market in the Ottawa-Gatineau region is open Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays in Gatineau year round. Merchandise runs the gamut, with vendors selling amazing farm-fresh produce, clothes, honey, antiques, furniture, and handmade jewelry. Hot food is often available as well.
