Hog's Back Road

Hog's Back Road looking east

Hog's Back Road is a 1 km (0.62 mi) road in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. The road connects Meadowlands Drive and Prince of Wales Drive to Riverside Drive and Brookfield Road. The road is used as the boundary line between Mooney's Bay Park and Hog's Back Park. It goes over the dam creating Mooney's Bay and Hog's Back Falls, and continues over the Hog's Back swing bridge over the Rideau Canal, to allow taller boats navigating the canal to pass. The road also runs past the spot where the Rideau Canal separates from the Rideau River.[1]
