The railway station
Built in 1927, this Canadian Pacific Railroad station was restored and then opened to visitors in June 1996. It houses a permanent exhibition describing how the town was designed in 1917 by Thomas Adams, renowned Canadian urbanist.
The lookout
From the lookout, you can delight in the vastness of the scenery and the splendour of our forests. Is there nothing more peaceful than being able to breathe in clean air and contemplate an exceptional view?
The bicycle path
A section of the rail network was dismantled and converted into a linear park which borders on lac aux Brochets over a distance of 6,7 km.
Gordon Creek
Gordon Creek is a natural spillway from Lake Kipawa. It crosses the eastern part of town and is only a minute away from downtown where it begins its final course into the Ottawa River. The flow is punctuated with a multitude of cascades embanked in a ravine and a magnificent waterfall located about 200 metres to the north of Murer Ave.
Standing on the bridge over Gordon Creek, one can feel the force of the energy emanating from the fall.
St.Theresa’s Church
Built in 1919, the parish church is characterized by its Gothic architectural style. This church is quite uncommon as it houses three famous sculptures by Bourgault acquired in 1978. They include the Virgin Mary, St.Theresa with a rose in hand and the risen Christ.
