This is an iconic hidden gem in Ottawa. It is right downtown, yet very few people ever use the 287 stairs for endurance training. It is absolutely breathtaking AND it takes your breath away. Stair repeats are killers. I lead stair workouts on Mondays and Wednesdays at noon in the summer when the stairs are open to the public. I love/hate this route!
