The Outaouais offers the perfect mix of proximity and diversity. There is something for everybody: nature lovers, foodies, culture and history buffs. The easternmost territory in the Outaouais is a prime destination for those in search of an authentic local experience. In May 1855, Louis-Joseph Papineau named his property "MonteBello", and in 1878, the town was officially founded. The spirit of the Papineau family can still be left at the Manor, in the family burial chapel and in the village, where history has been well preserved. Located on the bank of the Ottawa River and with two marinas, it's a top vacation spot offering a wide array of activities, including golf, horseback riding, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, hiking, hunting and fishing. It's also home to two very popular attractions, the Château Montebello and Parc Omega.
