Rideau Lakes lies along the Rideau Canal waterway in eastern Ontario, where interconnected lakes, granite outcrops and wooded shorelines define the terrain. Big Rideau Lake and Upper Rideau Lake are central to this broad rural township, whose communities include Portland, Elgin and Newboro. Completed in 1832 as a military route between Ottawa and Kingston, the Rideau Canal is both a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a National Historic Site of Canada. Its lockstations, boating culture and seasonal cottages give the area a distinctly waterside character. Browse additional webcams from the surrounding area to extend your view of Rideau Lakes.
