The Municipality of Quinte West's unique position at the hub of a number of natural and manmade waterways has given it both economic advantage and natural beauty.

Vacationers & Boaters Paradise
Being at the southern entrance to the Trent-Severn Waterway it attracts boats and boaters from May 24th to Labour Day. Community & Leisure Dept. of the City of Quinte West is an active sponsor of a series of diverse events that make visitors feel at home during all the seasons.

Longtime Ties to Our Military
Just east of town is the largest airbase in Canada. Since 1929 it has witnessed Canada participation in world events through wars and peacetime. Be sure to visit the RCAF Memorial Museum. Watch as they work rebuilding a Halifax bomber or visit their gift shop.

Canada's Oldest White Settlement at Carrying Place
South of Trenton at Carrying Place you are treading the route of generations of Native explorers, settlers and soldiers. This ancient portage route between Lake Ontario and the Bay of Quinte, is the oldest road in Ontario. Here, in 1668, the first white settlement was established.
