Petawawa

The Ottawa River defines the setting of Petawawa — its broad channel and the nearby confluence of the Petawawa River shape a community set among the wooded reaches of the Ottawa Valley. On Ontario’s side of the river in Renfrew County, the town combines residential neighbourhoods with a strongly military character. Garrison Petawawa, a major Canadian Army base, has long been central to local life and gives the place a distinct role within the region. River access, forests and the open valley help explain Petawawa’s outdoors-oriented rhythm. Put Petawawa in its Ottawa Valley setting by browsing webcams from nearby Ontario communities.
