Eastern Ontario - Introduction
Soldier at Fort Henry
Spanning a magnificent combination of lakes, rivers, early settlement routes and historic cities and villages, Eastern Ontario offers up classic Canadian heritage in a stunning scenic setting. Historical places of interest are brought to life in a number of living museums while the Prince Edward County Taste Trail offers food and wine lovers an amazing experience.
In 2007, the region became the home to Ontario’s first UNESCO World Heritage Site after the Rideau Canal Route received the prestigious designation in June.
