The Township of Bonnechere Valley boasts a high quality of life and is rich in natural and tourism assets. This part of the Ottawa Valley benefits from immediate access to several freshwater lakes, river and caves; as well as having a large supply of forests and farmland, making it an ideal location for many types of businesses. Bonnechere Valley is centrally located within Renfrew County and just a 90-minute drive from the City of Ottawa.
