| Grimsby Mountain
Loop
This route takes
you through the rolling farmland on top of the Escarpment
south of Grimsby. It begins and ends in the town of Smithville
- "The Hub of the Niagara Peninsula". Stock up on
food and water here because there are no services on the rest
of the route. On the north side of the loop, along Ridge Rd.
you will be rewarded with magnificent views over the Lake
Ontario Plain and, if it's clear, right over Lake Ontario.
When you get to Wolverton Rd., look down - this is Wolverton
Mountain, a hill to put fear into the best cyclists! (Our
route takes you up - only a short distance.) You may encounter
some traffic on Regional Road 20, south of Grassie, but it's
only for about two kilometres. Otherwise, the roads should
be very quiet.
