McGarry Township

McGarry Township has served as a gold-mining centre in northeastern Ontario since the early 20th century. It lies in the Larder River watershed near the Quebec border, where boreal forest, wetlands and small lakes cover a sparsely settled stretch of the Canadian Shield. Virginiatown, the township’s principal community, grew with the regional gold rush; the Kerr-Addison mine operated there for decades and remains a defining part of local industrial heritage. Highway 66 links Virginiatown and Kearns with the wider Timiskaming area. Browse additional webcams nearby to see how McGarry Township relates to the Larder River country and northeastern Ontario.
