About OOGL
The Ottawa Outdoor Gear Library is dedicated to providing equitable access to nature-based experiences, land-based programming, and outdoor recreation.
We aim to serve people living with low incomes, racialized communities, 2SLGBTQ+ people, newcomers, youth, and anyone else who experiences barriers to outdoor activity.
We operate on the principle that systemic barriers should not prevent access to outdoor play and activity. Everyone deserves to enjoy the physical and mental health benefits of outdoor recreation.
No one who wishes to borrow gear will be turned away, however we encourage folks who have the financial resources to support a small business via gear rental to do so. Alternatively, you can donate to our organization when borrowing gear if you have the means.

Canadian Museum of Civilization
The Canadian Museum of Civilization is also known as the Canadian History Museum. The museum introduces the human history of North America spanning thousands of years. It is the museum with the most visitors in Canada. The museum adopts a unique modern design with smooth wave curves, which can inspire visitors&#39; creativity and imagination. Behind the museum, you can see the Parliament Building and the St. Lawrence River in the distance, and the scenery is very beautiful.

Natural scenery

130***97

It is an hour&#39;s drive from Old Quebec. Because it is a weekend, there are so many cars. We arrived at 9 o&#39;clock, and the parking lot was full, so we could only park on the side of the road.
You need to buy tickets to the park, not by vehicle but by person, 8.75 Canadian dollars per person including tax. Many locals come here to hike and boat.
The park is very large, and there are free shuttles to distant attractions. We wanted to see a nearby waterfall, but we walked for two hours on the mountain road according to the instructions, but we still didn&#39;t get there. We asked the locals who were hiking, and they said they still had to walk for another hour, so we had to give up.
Although we didn&#39;t see the waterfall, the autumn scenery of the park is indeed beautiful. I like the mountains and water here, the air here, and the autumn here.
