Chapman Mills Conservation Area Paddling Access

Chapman Mills Conservation Area is a small Rideau River access in Barrhaven where the dock, picnic shelter, and fishing platform sit close to the Winding Way parking lot. It works well for a short shore-fishing stop, with free parking and a boardwalk option if the group wants a walk before or after casting.

Dow's Lake Recreational Dock Paddling Access

Dow's Lake now has an NCC recreational dock that works for short, hand-carried paddles on the Rideau Canal system. Plan it as a seasonal, urban dock visit: confirm the dock is in place, use the Champagne lot or arrive by transit or bike, and check weather, wake, and water-quality notes before getting on the water.
