Témiscaming

Présentation

Témiscaming is one of only three planned cities in Quebec. Its design was inspired by the English garden town concept. Even today, the Anglo-Saxon architecture, the beds of flowering plants, and the works of art of European origin blend in superbly with the natural and sumptuous setting of this community nested on the hillside.Témiscaming won two Fleurons, thus attesting its status of flower-town and justifying its slogan 'Cité-jardin'. Témiscaming is also part of the 'Village-relais' network. This confirms the quantity and quality of the services delivered to our visitors. Témiscaming’s numerous attractions include the Musée de la gare (Canadian Pacific Railroad museum), which was designated historic monument, and a 7-km linear path for a hike, bicycle ride or other. Discover the breathtaking Gordon Creek falls and explore the path climbing to a scenic point that overlooks the downtown area of Témiscaming and the Ottawa River. Sports facilities include a 9-hole golf course, baseball and soccer fields and tennis courts.With its flamboyant landscapes and numerous lakes, the Témiscaming area provides, year round, a natural environment of exceptional beauty to its inhabitants and tourists.
