Perfect Day Out of the City

I surprised my husband with this road trip for his birthday in mid May. It was our first experience with GWT and it really was the perfect day trip out of the city. It has a bit of everything, hiking, great food, and beautiful scenic drives and it was a very manageable distance. We were so pleasantly surprised with all of the stops (especially #2) because if we had looked up some of these spots on our own, we probably would have never ventured to them just seeing them on the internet, but going there with no assumptions was a real treat! Highly recommend!!

It can get busy on fall weekends!

This was my first trip (out of five GWT), so it set the bar high. We did it in the fall...beautiful colours. A nice jaunt from the GTA. They give you a choice of a few hikes, and we picked the busest one...and it was busy but great.
