The Capital Pathway is a 220-kilometre network of recreational trails that interconnects many parks, waterways, and sites in Ottawa, Ontario, and Gatineau, Quebec1. The pathway, also known as the Bike Path, was primarily developed by the National Capital Commission (NCC), a crown corporation established in 19591.

The first section of the pathway, the Ottawa River Pathway, was constructed in the early 1970s1. Over the years, the network has expanded to include various routes such as the Rideau Canal Pathway and the Rideau River Pathway1. The pathway offers a continuous route through the National Capital Region, making it one of the most extensive pathway networks in North America2.

The Capital Pathway is used for walking, jogging, cycling, and other recreational activities, providing a scenic and safe way to explore the region2. It connects numerous landmarks, including the Canadian War Museum, Parliament Hill, and Gatineau Park.
