Nestled in the heart of Renfrew County and named after its Scottish counterpart, Arnprior is known for its history in lumber, hydro power, aerospace, and farming. Tucked where the Madawaska and Ottawa Rivers meet, Arnprior is close enough to the National Capital Region off Highway 417 but still surrounded by the natural beauty of the Ottawa Valley.
When it comes to food, Arnprior’s got you covered with plenty of great restaurants and a lively historic downtown. For family time or a casual walk, check out Robert Simpson Park or the 3.6 km Gillies Grove trail.
But it’s not just about looks; Arnprior has a bunch of things to do. Whether you’re into marinas, ball games, ice skating, swimming, or curling, there’s something for everyone. And if you want to chill, there are two beaches and even an airport that offers skydiving, flying lessons, and charter tours.
In a nutshell, Arnprior is a great place to live, work and play in a balanced and laid-back community.
