Small town sampler

We chose to do this trip over a Tuesday-Wednesday and were disappointed because a number of destinations weren't open. We recommend going Thursday-Saturday and with numerous hikes, this trip is better done in cooler weather. But, we did go to a number of small towns that we had seen signs for but never visited. If you are leaving from the London, Ontario area, the first stop is approximately two hours away.
