Lock Tales - Kilmarnock Lockstation - Rideau Canal National Historic Site

Going to be a first time boat owner this summer and plan to travel the Rideau or Trent waterways. Maybe I missed it in your video list, but it would be nice to see a video that describes how a boater would pass through a Parks Canada lock. Thanks.

That's a great idea - thanks for the suggestion!
Our staff at the Rideau Canal can provide a 'Boating Safely' information package by request. You can contact them at [e-mail] . Good luck with your new boat!

Can solo boaters transit the canal ?

Hi, that's a great question. Solo boaters can definitely make the trip, but travelling with a crew is easier.
