Welcome to Petawawa

The Town of Petawawa, Ontario, Canada is quietly nestled on the western shores of the Ottawa River and bisected by the Petawawa River. Petawawa is located just 160 km. west of Ottawa. This scenic community is a must-see for boaters, anglers, sports enthusiasts, and anyone who enjoys the outdoors – from golden beaches to fresh-fallen snow.
