Perth County is made up of four member municipalities, all with their own heritage and charm.

North Perth

Welcome to North Perth where big-city attractions meet small-town charm. 

Surrounded by the beauty of Perth County's countryside, the towns of Listowel, Atwood, Monkton, and Gownstown make up this bustling area. A growing and thriving community, North Perth is home to 12,600 people within 25 minutes of Waterloo. Italianate and Victorian architecture set the backdrop for Listowel's picturesque and historic downtown that boasts modern shopping and dining. 

North Perth is also home to over 22 km of trails for hiking, cycling and walking, in addition to soccer, tennis, swimming, and hockey facilities. North Perth is also home to a 27-hole championship golf course and 9-hole family-style course.

Perth South

Perth South is where the Avon and Thames rivers flow and farmland is bounteous and beautiful.

This is the part of the county where the hamlets of Sebringville, Avonton, Kirkton, and St. Paul are tucked away and surrounded by some of the most fertile lands in all of Perth County.

Wildwood Conservation Area is the region's leading outdoor recreational area for camping, sailing, fishing, mountain biking, and hiking. Three golf courses also dot this scenic landscape, matched by winter tubing slopes and McCully's Hill Farm. Perth South is one of the leading recreational and day-trip destinations within the county.

Perth East

The past and present effortlessly collide in Perth East.

This diverse area is rooted in Amish and Mennonite history and includes the communities of Shakespeare, Milverton and Millbank.

Shakespeare, located along Highway 7/8, features a quaint village alive with shops offering antiques and treasures. Millbank is a hub of Mennonite shops and restaurants including the famous Anna Mae's restaurant featured on The Food Network's You Gotta Eat Here!. The Millbank Kissing Bridge Trailway (part of the G2G Trail) offers 45 km of trails for hiking, skiing, biking, or running.

West Perth

West Perth is where nature, industry and culture exist in perfect harmony.

Located within 35 minutes of London, this end of the county is a paradise for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts. Situated along the Thames River, Mitchell has restored over 65 acres of wetlands- the habitat of choice for rare bird species like the Blue Heron.

The shopping in Mitchell and Dublin showcases superior home furnishing and décor stores, along with unique treasure and fashion boutiques. Local restaurants include yummy butter tarts and pies that have received widespread praise.
