Tourism
The Ottawa Valley is a four-season destination that stretches from Ottawa, Canada’s capital city, westward to the wilderness of Ontario’s world-renowned Algonquin Park in the west. More than half the Valley is wilderness: 2.4 million hectares (6 million acres) of pristine waterways, rolling woodlands and dramatic landforms.
The Ottawa Valley is the perfect destination for intrepid explorers and outdoor enthusiasts alike. Outfitters, trippers and guides are always ready to lead our guests into the uncharted wilderness, abundant snowfalls and the roaring whitewater of the Ottawa River, making this a hotspot for outdoor adventure.
Four seasons of unique cultural heritage attractions and special events showcase the different aspects of life in the Ottawa Valley.
Visitors travel from far and wide to partake in spectacular displays of craftsmanship, cultivation and technology at the various theme parks, farmer's markets and attractions throughout the valley.
