All about Perth
Located on the banks of the Tay River around an hour southwest of Ottawa, the town of Perth is best known for its well-maintained historic buildings and walking paths. In the town centre, you’ll find expansive Stewart Park — a great place to picnic and relax under the shade of a willow tree. The Tay River is a popular spot for kayaking, and scenic paths in the surrounding area include the Rideau Trail, which runs through downtown. The nearby Perth Wildlife Reserve also features a 2.5-kilometre trail that cuts past the Tay Marsh and offers plenty of opportunities for watching bluebirds and Canada geese.
The lush arming country around Perth is also famed for its cheese production; there’s a huge 22,000-pound cheese sculpture in town to celebrate this, as well as plenty of cafes and stores where you can sample local varieties. The town hosts a farmers market every Saturday from May until October, where you can pick up local organic produce, homemade baked goods, and crafts.
What are the top things to do in Perth?
Perth Museum
Set inside the historic Matheson House — formerly the home of a senator in Canada’s first parliament — the Perth Museum offers a glimpse into life in the town in the 1800s. Wander through the rooms of the original manor and delve into the town’s sporting, cultural, and geological history through varied, interactive exhibits, including cheese churns and presses.
Stewart Park
In the heart of the city, you’ll find the expansive Stewart Park – a beautiful green space that was donated to Perth by a local resident in honour of her husband. Today, it’s an ideal spot for walking or jogging, or gathering with a picnic of local cheeses. A river runs through the park and there are a few places where you can take a dip or launch a kayak. There’s also a winding, flat walking trail that passes over scenic bridges.
Perth Wildlife Reserve
Drive a few minutes outside of the city to reach the Perth Wildlife Reserve — a conservation area located on the Tay Marsh. This is a great spot for spotting local wildlife, including deer, ducks, and turkeys, and there’s a scenic signposted trail to follow. Head up the lookout tower for far-reaching views over the water and marshland.
