68 km detour avoided

The Masson–Cumberland ferry saves you a detour of approximately 68 kilometres via Ottawa and Gatineau—specifically by way of the Macdonald-Cartier Bridge. Depending on traffic conditions, this direct route can shave nearly an hour off your travel time between the two shores.

A safe crossing

Sixty years of expertise on the Ottawa River, a rigorously maintained fleet, and experienced crews. You can board with complete confidence—in summer and winter alike.

Very short wait and crossing

The wait at the dock and the duration of the crossing are very short. Up to five boats in service ensure a continuous back-and-forth between the two banks.

For all vehicles

Motorcycles, cars, 18-wheelers, or buses: all vehicles can cross.

Boundaries 57 tonnes (114,000 lb) and a maximum width of 18 feet. Up to 15 vehicles on board.

The rate is reasonable because it avoids a long detour to get to one of the bridges located in downtown Gatineau to cross the Ottawa River from Masson-Angers. The service is courteous and fast. In addition, the waiting time on the shore is very short.
