Beautiful park and friendly staff. The snowshoe rental was painless and there's a ton of trails. Super close to Ottawa, we didn't have a car and the cab ride was 12 minutes from downtown.

I visited Gatineau twice on the weekend on my visit to the Ottawa area. I am not much of a skater since my double hip operation, and cross-country skiing is too hurried and stressful. But as a middle aged guy, who loves to canoe and hike during the summer, and be outdoors in general, snowshoeing has become my go to event in the winter. And in my mind while the Rideau is pretty, Gatineau is stunningly beautiful! However, my first trip to Gatineau park was at night!Friday night there is "Snowshoeing Under the Stars" put on by the "Friends of Gatineau Park". A guide takes you on a 3km journey under the stars to talk about how how plants and animals survive the winter. The guide was wonderful, asking how many of us were English vs French. As it turned out I was the only Anglophone. Always looking for ways to improve my French, I insisted that the tour be all done in en francais. I wanted to make a good impression in the event I got lost, fell into a ravine, and they had to send out search party. Or at least consider sending out the search teams to dig me out of any snowbank I was buried under. None of my concerns came to pass, and it was one of the most enjoyable evenings I have spent outdoors. The park is stunning in a different way at night, and the falling light snow made it magical. There was also the camaraderie I enjoyed with my fellow snowshoers making the drive from Ottawa well worth the effort. The hot chocolate afterwards capped a wonderful evening. Needless to say, I slept very well that night at my hotel. Sunday morning, I made the trek again to the park, to retrace my steps on Friday to see what the trail looks like during the day. The conditions were great as we had a snowfall overnight. The park and the views, not to mention the wildlife - a deer and birds - made the quiet trekking along the trail relaxing. I was alone this time. No group noise, no group salvation either. :) This is one of Canada's gems. The forethought to preserve this area and make it the mecca that it is will benefit generations to come. It is a great outing and if you don't have snowshoes, they can be rented. For those who live in the Gatineau/Ottawa area there is a lifetime of trails to explore and things to see. It is a great adventure for families, and old guys alike. For those visiting, bring your snowshoes and enjoy the fresh invigorating air of Gatineau. Snowshoeing is part of our tradition, and I can think of no place better to do it. Go to the Visitor Centre, and start your love affair with the Park!

Never had a problem. You can get a park ski pass here, and rent showshoes, but not skis.
