Route
Thanks to the dedication of the Eastern Lake Ontario
St Lawrence River Waterfront Working Group, about 40 km of Waterfront
Trail were signed along the Loyalist Parkway through Greater Napanee
and Loyalist. This is the newest addition to the Waterfront Trail
and offers visitors lovely rural landscapes, quaint, historic villages
and wonderful views of Lake Ontario. Be sure to allow time to visit
Amherst Island by Millhaven. It's known for its artisans, music,
birdwatching and tranquil scenery.
