Township of Uxbridge, ON

Come visit our “countryside playground,” less than an hour away from the heart of Toronto.

Uxbridge has been classified as the Trail Capital of Canada. Throughout the seasons, walk, jog, hike, cycle, cross-country ski, snowshoe or even ride along the trails on horseback.

Visit the Leaskdale Manse, the beloved homestead of Lucy Maud Montgomery from 1911 to 1926, just across the road from the century-old former Presbyterian Church now owned by the Lucy Maud Montgomery Society of Ontario. The site has been preserved as an interpretive centre for the life of Lucy Maud Montgomery, the famous Canadian author of “Anne of Green Gables” fame, who wrote 11 of her 22 books and raised two children while living in this historic Manse.

Just 10 minutes south of Leaskdale, explore the Thomas Foster Memorial, a temple inspired by the Taj Mahal, built in 1936 by the former mayor of Toronto. This structure is a beautiful example of Byzantine architecture. Enter and enjoy the peace and tranquility of this special, unique structure.

Explore Historic Downtown Uxbridge and discover stores like Blue Heron Books, a quaint bookstore known as a community hub and calm-chaos.

In the Township of Uxbridge, we celebrate our heritage and work to build a strong sense of culture and community.
