Cycling network
L’Orignal is a hub for solo, family and group cycling enthusiasts. Every year, many cyclists ride the roads around our charming village where they can admire the majestic Ottawa River.
From different meeting points, paved, low-traffic roads will take you across beautiful landscapes and thriving farms. These roads can take you to other villages such as Alfred, Vankleek Hill, Hawkesbury and even Lefaivre, where a ferry will take you to the Route verte on the Québec side.
You can also access the Prescott-Russell Recreation Trail: a 72 km stone-dust bike path built on an old railway line.

Residents of, and visitors to L’Orignal are invited to live their faith at the St-Jean-Baptiste Parish Catholic Church in L’Orignal or at Cassburn United Church, both of which offer weekly worship services.
