Powassan

Few towns in Ontario have a history as closely tied to the railway settlement of the province’s Near North as Powassan. Set amid mixed woodland and agricultural land southeast of Lake Nipissing, it occupies a transition zone between the lake country around North Bay and the broader interior of northeastern Ontario. The municipality brings together the communities of Powassan and Trout Creek, giving this small centre a distinctly rural regional role. The Powassan Fall Fair reflects the area's continuing agricultural connections, while Highway 11 places the town on a principal north–south route through the province.
