The rich history of Killarney, Northern Ontario's oldest town, dates back to the 1820's. Canada's voyageurs established a fur trading post there as they traveled by canoe across the country. After the fur trading days, Killarney evolved into a commercial fishing village and then a logging center. Not until 1962 was a road (Highway # 637) built to connect Killarney with the Trans Canada Highway and the rest of the world. This gradually brought more visitors to the small outpost as tourism in the area began to grow. The village now sustains itself almost entirely on tourism in the summer months. Killarney also remains an important centre of commercial fishing and is home to fine accommodation and eating establishments as well as a historic church, general store and post office.

Located at the entrance of the North Channel of Lake Huron, Killarney sits adjacent to world class yachting waters, spectacular sea kayaking routes and a myriad of fishing holes.

Killarney Provincial Park is easily accessible with an entrance just 6 km from the village of Killarney, this "jewel of the Ontario's park system" contains a stunning mixture of forests, lakes and quartzite mountains.

Killarney is now easily accessed by a much improved highway just 40 miles off the Trans Canada Highway and is also serviced by a paved airstrip (CPT2 - N45 58 39 W81 29 41)
