Andrew Haydon Park
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Andrew Haydon Park is a park on the Ottawa River that is managed by the City of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. It is situated on Carling Avenue at Holly Acres Road. The park was named after Andrew Haydon, former Reeve of Nepean. The landscape-architect, Donald W. Graham worked on this project.
There is a bandshell for outdoor concerts and a picnic area. The Nepean Sailing Club is located nearby at adjacent Dick Bell Park. The park features walking trails, play structures, and picnicking.
Migrating Canada geese, brants, ducks, and shorebirds stop over along the marshy edges of the river near the park. Resident Canada geese and mallards also inhabit the park's two ponds.
