Arundel, Quebec
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Arundel (2006 population 601) is a township in Quebec, Canada located 18 km south of the new amalgamated community of Mont Tremblant (the largest ski resort in eastern North America).
Arundel was settled mostly by Scottish and Irish stock in the mid 1800s who broke the land and established subsistence farming operations and worked the forests in winter.
Even today most of the land is reserved (and protected) for agricultural use despite the very strong growth in the region over the last ten years. Much of the land borders the Rouge River.
