Ontario’s “Newest” Destination
Marketing Organization.

Mar 07, 2006
The Rideau Heritage Route Tourism Association (RHRTA) is Ontario’s “newest” Destination Marketing Organization (DMO) and is mandated to promote the Rideau Heritage Route (RHR) by developing marketing, communications and promotional programs. The RHR, comprised of the Rideau Canal, its adjoining towns, villages and the Cities of Ottawa and Kingston, offers a variety of world-class arts and heritage experiences. The fact that the story of the Rideau Canal is, in part, the story of the creation of Canada itself, reinforces the significance of the RHR. The overall goal is to position the entire RHR Corridor as a tourism destination by promoting the region’s authentic, arts, heritage, cuisine, agri-tourism and natural history experiences.

The Rideau Heritage Route from the Ottawa River to Lake Ontario in Kingston along both sides of the Rideau Canal, winds its way through historic sites, charming villages, quaint attractions and spectacular recreation areas. For more information go to www.rideauheritageroute.ca
