Richmond was founded in 1818 and is the oldest community within the current City of Ottawa.
To celebrate Richmond's 200th birthday in 2018, we have created the Richmond Passport Tour!
The Richmond 200 Passport Tour gives you the opportunity to explore Richmond by finding the 10 caches hidden around our village. Use a Passport (printable here) to make rubbings of each of the 10 special symbols found in the containers. Collect all 10 rubbings and submit your completed Passport to earn one free Richmond 200 Commemorative Coin!
This park is called the Jock River Park, and includes part of the Rideau Trail as it follows the curve of the river here.
The Jock River Park is also the location of the finish line of Richmond’s annual Jock River Race. The Race is a 12.5 kilometer paddle on the river for canoers, kayakers, and paddleboarders! The Race has been running each Spring since 1972.
