2026Maple Leaf Viewing in Ottawa|trip.com

The beauty of Ottawa's maple leaves is a precious gift bestowed on the city in autumn. Walking through the streets and alleys of Ottawa, you will find that both the banks of the ancient canal and the quiet park paths are covered with layers of colorful maple leaves. These maple leaves gradually transition from emerald green to golden yellow, orange-red, and finally turn into deep purple-red, just like the paint on the palette. Here, tourists can take a cruise ship to travel on the Rideau Canal. The maple leaves on both sides are as hot as flames, reflected on the sparkling water, and set off the ancient bridges and buildings; or you can choose to hike through the greenway, enjoy the various forms of maple leaves along the way, and feel the wonders of nature.
