Arnprior

The landscape around Arnprior is defined by the meeting of the Madawaska and Ottawa rivers, which has shaped both the town’s layout and its timber-trade economy. Set in the Ottawa Valley, Arnprior developed during the 19th-century lumber era, when the Ottawa River was an important transport route for logs and supplies. Robert Simpson Park gives public access to the Ottawa River shoreline, while the compact centre remains closely tied to the waterfront. The Arnprior & District Museum occupies the town’s former post office, completed in 1896, and traces local life and industry. Beyond town, broad river water, wooded banks and smaller communities give this part of eastern Ontario its distinct character.
