Recommended by Liam Dwyer | Queen’s University

The John E. Pearce Provincial Park has been a protected area since 1957. This pristine patch of preserved land covers 67.9 hectares of the Carolinian forest. The provincial park offers camping plots for use during the summer and a vast expanse of hiking trails. Visitors can look out from the 33-meter cliff overlooking Lake Erie or picnic in the quiet shade of the forest canopy.

Talbot Trail

The Talbot Trail is a historical route completed in the 1820s in Ontario near the north shore of Lake Erie. The building of the route was overseen by Colonel Thomas Talbot.

The trail extends nearly 200 kilometres from Windsor to Fort Erie. Its original intent was to provide a continuous land route for settlers and military personnel between the Niagara region and Amherstburg, aiding in the development of the Talbot Settlement.
