Find the Best Splash Pads in Ottawa
Mountain Meadows Splash Pad is a basic splash pad perfect for younger splashers. It features two gushing fountains, a gentle water tunnel, and a spray cannon.
There are two playstructures a short walk from the splash pad. There is a smaller toddler structure with swings and a larger structure with big kid swings. The trees are younger so there isn’t a lot of shade yet.
Delorme Park Splash Pad is a newer splash pad whose main attraction is a tall post with three dumping buckets. The water pressure is high and the cycle is long. A surprisingly enjoyable pad.
The park has many attractions – a basketball court, a volleyball net, a hill slide, swings, and a playstructure. There is plenty of shade as well.
This is a park we will come back to visit again.
Bandmaster Park Splash Pad is a new splash pad with an very interesting structure. The pad’s main feature is something called an Aqualien Rainforest – a tall six post structure that has three central flower posts and three taller dumping flower posts that spill onto the shorter flowers. It’s certainly a novel structure to play under and to admire.
Bandmaster is a spacious park with lots of room to run and a playstructure.
Dr. John Hopps Park has a modern, inviting splash pad with many different devices rotating through a fairly long cycle. At any given time there is water coming out from somewhere and you need to move quickly if you’re trying to avoid getting wet.
The splash pad itself has little shade as the park is fairly new. There is a gazebo nearby and a playstructure at the park.
Walden Park Splash Pad is a fun pad in a lovely setting. The double arches and Trio dumping pole are special features of this splash pad.
The best part of the park is it’s location – nestled in rocks beside a nature trail.

Cedarcroft Park Splash Pad is a relatively new splash pad. It’s biggest features are the two big green leaves and that there is always water spraying you from somewhere in this pad!
There are toddler-friendly structures, a structure for older children, and a great big hill we look forward to visiting in the winter.
