Find the Best Splash Pads in Ottawa
A novel themed splash pad. The pad is shaped like a lily pad. The structures at the park include a froggy archway and a cattail post. This one was our daughter’s favourite of the day – it’s a nice splash pad for more hesitant splashers. The pressure is gentle and there is nothing unpredictable or that can be targeted at others.
There are many older trees at this park so there is plenty of shade. There are also swings and a playstructure at the park.
They painted a cool orange and blue swirl on the ground at Blue Willow Park Splash Pad and that makes all the difference.
A nice quiet little splash pad with a red archway and a couple of ground sprinklers. (We really like the pretty star shape spray pattern that these loops make.) There’s a picnic table under a gazebo nearby as well as a regular play structure.

Heatherington Park Splash Pad is a fairly new pad in an older park. The splash pad features a trio of dumping buckets, an arch, and a few sprays of water.
The park has a lot of shade, a gazebo for picnics, and some structures to play on.

A very small splash pad in New Edinburgh park with only four ground sprinklers… but it’s quality, not quantity. You get some impressive height with these water fountains.
Chapman Mills Main Street Park (West) Splash Pad is a new splash pad in Barrhaven with a unique structure – a green dragon! The splash pad has a lot of jets and will get you wet for sure.
It’s a newer park so there is little shade. There is a dragon themed playstructure beside the splash pad.
