A vibrant town nestled against the boreal forest
Drawn by clean air and mythical light, visitors come to experience traditions, historical landmarks, natural beauty, and polar bears.
Historic heroes ready to be discovered
Cochrane is the birthplace of NHL hall of famer Tim Horton. He grew up playing hockey in Cochrane and went on to win four Stanley cups with the Toronto Maple Leafs.

We invite you to come and find out for yourself why Cochrane Ontario is so wonderfully unexpected. Whether you are looking to visit or are thinking of relocating, one thing is for sure, your experience will be a memorable one.
Best regards, Mayor Peter Politis
Central to town is Lake Commando. A best kept secret for local residents and visitors alike.
