Ottawa Ontario Downtown Scavenger Hunt: The Strathcona Circuit

Discover the hidden heartbeat of Ottawa in a uniquely immersive experience through Strathcona Park. Nestled along the tranquil Rideau River, this beloved green space holds more than meets the eye. Our curated scavenger hunt leads you on a two-mile path through some of the park’s most iconic—and often overlooked—landmarks. Stand beneath the graceful Lord Strathcona Fountain, catch echoes of Shakespeare at the Odyssey Theatre stage, take in the riverside serenity from the Rideau River Lookout, and wander through the mysterious stonework of Strathcona’s Folly. Whether you're exploring with friends, family, or on a solo journey of discovery, this adventure blends history, nature, and storytelling into a truly memorable outing. You’ll laugh, learn, and leave with a deeper connection to one of Ottawa’s most charming corners. Let the search begin—Strathcona Park is waiting.
