Area Information
Location:
The community is located approximately a twenty-five-minute drive from Ottawa, an hour and a half from Montreal, and a five-hour drive from Toronto. Embrun is located near Trans-Canada Highway 417, between Russell, Ontario and Limoges, Ontario. Embrun is part of the larger Russell Township in Prescott and Russell United Counties. Embrun is also part of the National Capital Region. In 1898 the New York and Ottawa Railway was built. This railway, which travelled between Tupper Lake, New York and Ottawa, stopped at Embrun six times every day except for Sunday. This railway line continued operation until 1957. CN purchased the railway track and proceeded to demolish it. Wikipedia
