It is located 65 km (ca. 40 mi) west of Downtown Ottawa, at the confluence of the Madawaska River and the Ottawa River in the Ottawa Valley.

The town is a namesake of Arnprior, Scotland, and is known for lumber, hydropower generation, aerospace, farming and its proximity to the National Capital Region.
