The Brockville Railway Tunnel was built between 1854 and 1860 to service the Brockville and Ottawa Railway. Completed 21 years before the construction of the Canadian Pacific Railway, this historic tunnel predates all other major tunnel projects in Canada, including the rail tunnels in the western Rockies. A committee came together to renovate this historic site for the people of Brockville in 2011, and in 2017, the tunnel opened its doors to the public once again. Visit Brockville Tourism website.

Outdoor Adventures
The Brockville Country Club golf course is one of the best you will find in Eastern Ontario. The 18-hole course at 6343 to 4506 yards is not especially long to today’s standards but deceptively challenging. With considerable elevation changes, many narrow and treed fairways, challenging par 3’s and ample sand traps and water hazards, the course can play tough.
