Katrine is a locality in Parry Sound, Ontario, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Katrine is located at 45.5765°N, 79.3566°W.

Katrine rests on the cusp of the Canadian Shield, a landscape where granite knuckles push through rich, dark soil, and stands of pine and maple lean into the prevailing winds. It lies 30.0 km south of South River, ON (from South River, ON: bearing 177°T), and is situated 6.9 km south-south-east of Burk's Falls. The air here, especially in the lingering twilight of a summer evening, carries the cool, damp scent of the forest floor and the faint, sweet perfume of wild roses that cling to the roadside ditches. Gentle hills, sculpted by ancient glaciers, cradle the small settlement, their slopes a patchwork of cultivated fields and wilder woodlands that stretch towards the horizon. The water, a constant presence, finds its way through a network of small lakes and streams, their surfaces often mirroring the vast, open sky, a sky that can shift from brilliant blue to bruised, dramatic grey with astonishing speed. Historically, Katrine's story is intertwined with the logging and agricultural booms that once defined this rugged corner of Ontario. The arrival of settlers, drawn by the promise of fertile land and abundant timber, laid the foundations for the quiet, enduring spirit of the place. Today, while the grand lumber mills have long since faded into memory, the spirit of self-reliance and connection to the land persists. Local farms, many passed down through generations, still yield their bounty, and a small but vital cluster of businesses serves the needs of the residents, their livelihoods as much a part of the local character as the granite outcrops themselves. The nearby waters are not just scenic; they are a source of recreation, drawing visitors for their fishing and boating, a gentle pulse that adds to Katrine's unhurried rhythm.
