Situated in mid-western New Brunswick, the Grand Falls Region is within ready access to Atlantic Canada and Central Canada, as well to the New England States. With a population of 30,000, Grand Falls is one of the only towns in Canada with a name in both official languages (Grand Falls/Grand-Sault). The town was named Grand Falls because it is home to the largest waterfall east of Niagara Falls, dropping from a height of 23 meters (75 feet). It is also the only officially bilingual town in New Brunswick.
Grand Falls is in part an agricultural town, as well as a commercial and manufacturing center. The potato crop features largely into the local economy. The fields of potato, wheat and clover create a picturesque scene of rolling hills and a patchwork of colours. The surrounding rural landscape with running rivers provides visitors with a truly memorable visual experience.
