| The
St. Catharines Loop
This loop takes you right around
the City of St. Catharines and along the Welland Canal into
Thorold. As you follow the canal, watch for boats and stop
at Lock Three for a good look at the Lock and visit the St.
Catharines Historical Museum.
Coming down from Thorold on Bradley
Street you will be beside the Second Welland CAnal, used in
the mid-1800's. On the west side of St. Catharines, you will
pass close to two wineries and the famous Wiley's Juice factory.
You may travel on parts of the
Waterfront Trail and the Welland Canals Parkway if you wish.
This route stays on roads, but to follow the Waterfront Trail
through St. Catharines, follow the signs. Watch for the Welland
Canals Parkway Recreational Trail on your left as you follow
Government Road from Lakeshore Road to Glendale Avenue. Glendale
Road from Mountain Road to Pelham Road is busy, but there
are bike lanes almost all of the way.
