The Nepean riding spans most of the former city of Nepean, Ont., including Barrhaven and Bells Corners.

The western border follows Eagleson Road with the south end at Brophy Drive and Bankfield Road. The eastern border follows the Rideau River and the northern end follows the CN rail and Highway 417.

The riding was recreated just prior to the election in 2015 from the former Nepean—Carleton riding. It had previously existed between 1988-1997 but was dissolved and split into Nepean—Carleton and Ottawa West—Nepean.
