Proud History and an Exciting Future

The land occupied by today's Arnprior is part of the traditional territory of the Algonquin Nation. Samuel de Champlain was the first European explorer to visit the area in 1613. Daniel McLachlin was one of the most successful businessmen in the area. He built a sawmill at the confluence of the Madawaska and Ottawa Rivers and expanded the community of Arnprior. The lumber industry kept a significant position until the closing of the Gillies Mill.


Arnprior was incorporated as a village in 1862, and in 1892, it was incorporated as a town. The town is the namesake of Arnprior, Scotland. The history of Arnprior is preserved and documented at the Arnprior and District Museum, and the Arnprior and McNab/Braeside Archives are located next door in the Public Library basement.

The Macnamara Field Naturalists' Club set up the Macnamara Trail. The Trail has boardwalks, viewing platforms and benches that let visitors explore it without disturbing its wild character.

The Trail in the southeast corner of Arnprior allows you to enjoy both of Arnprior's rivers. The Trail starts along the Madawaska River and through the hydro park. You then get a magnificent view of the confluence of the two rivers at Bell Park. Finally, you can enjoy a view of the Ottawa River at McLean Beach. The many rivers and lakes allow for lots of boating, fishing, and canoeing.


The Old Voyageur and Miner's Trail is 2.3 km long near Arnprior and features a beautiful lake. The Trail offers several activity options and is best used from April until October. Dogs are also able to use this Trail but must be kept on a leash.
