| The Municipality of Low is the gateway to the Vallée-de-la-Gatineau and its magnificent landscapes, located less than 45 minutes from Canada’s National Capital Region of Ottawa–Gatineau. Its geographic location makes it an ideal place to settle and live in harmony with nature while remaining close to major urban centres. The Village of Low, the municipality’s main hub, is situated near the Paugan Dam, an impressive structure offering exceptional panoramic views of the Gatineau River both to the north and south. The community of Low is undergoing a period of transition. Many residents commute daily to the Gatineau/Ottawa urban area for work. Relatively affordable real estate, quality infrastructure, an excellent quality of life, the presence of the Gatineau River, and the municipality’s agricultural character attract new residents as well as numerous seasonal visitors and vacationers. Known for their strong community spirit, the people of Low welcome many visitors each year. The municipality aims to capitalize on the growth of tourism within its territory. This developing sector now plays an important role in strengthening the municipality’s economy. |
