St Raphael's Catholic Church Ruins
Historical landmark
👍👍 Beautiful place to visit. Highly recommended. Reminds me of a castle or old fort ruins. Free to visit, but there is a donation box and well worth donating a few dollars to be able to enjoy such a beautiful example of architecture from long ago.

Rideau Canal, Lock 36 - Newboro
Historical landmark
👍👍 Great spot to stop for the night. Newboro has the store Kilborn's which can be good for a couple hours of perusing. There are not many spots with power for boats so get there early. The power is on the high side. Narrows side. Also Stirling Lodge is a must for a bite to eat.
