We dont get much press but there is tons of great riding in Ottawa. Camp Fortune has stepped up their game, Mount St Marie is a short drive away, the Gatineau Park official network is getting some long needed love ( the off network stuff is fantastic), South March Highlands is my local favorite, a bike park just opened at Carlington park this fall....check it all out on the OMBA website and add Ottawa to your plans for a road trip.

My home town! Cut my teeth at Camp Fortune and moved to Vancouver 2003 to ride. Always proud of the scene from Ottawa up to Quebec City and all the great riders form there I meet here. Strong outdoor community and would love to spend a couple weeks checking out the new tracks. Much love

We also have The Yard - a great new indoor bike park. And all these awesome ride spots are super accessible. Rode the Gats from home this morning before work. It now doesn't matter what the day throws at me - I will be smiling.

Great riding, and cool filming of city. However... does not do the area justice in terms of the trails that we have. I think we really are blessed with what we have here. Camp Fortune, Mont St. Marie and South March Highlands are awesome. And, they are a handful. If you can ride all the trails at those places, you can ride anywhere. There is also family oriented stuff being developed too at Larose Forest and through the greenbelt.

that's some nice steez. Camp Fortune is just so fun to ride. The place might eat your bike, but you will definitely have a good time... Knolly, nice edit... and bike! Sorry I crashed one of your shot last weekend...

The sections through the trees are at Camp Fortune, but the other rock I have never seen before, looks a bit like Carp woods but much more rounded and some sand.
???????

I saw all his ink and stuff at the start of the video and thought "this guy has a BMX background" and then by the end of the video he's throwing his knolly like it's a BMX. Fantastic. The only disappointing thing about this video is that there isn't another minute of riding at least.

That would be the lovely hill of Camp Fortune I believe! Great place for playing bikes.

@trailhead007: Definitely not Camp Fortune. I think it's a quarry on the Quebec side.

@bishopsmike: North of the Petro Can on the west side. What you see is what you get. It is private property...

@Blawrence: it’s on road 307 past Cantley, easy to spot as your driving by either north or south bound...

I have to admit I’m disappointed by the length... so much more to showcase... but I understand that shooting and editing is time consuming, so good work!
