Located 100 kilometres from Montreal and 130 kilometres from Ottawa, the canal is today a pleasure boating waterway. You'll be intrigued by the manoeuvres made by boats using the lock, which enables them to navigate a 20-metre drop in only 40 minutes! Then, head off to explore the former barracks that now house a museum.

When to go

The best time to visit the Carillon Canal National Historic Site is during the warmer months, from late spring to early fall, when the weather is pleasant for boating and exploring. Winter can be harsh, and some facilities may be closed, so always check the schedule before planning your visit.
