Sentier Essex-Chatham
The Essex-Chatham Trail is a segment of the massive Trans Canada Trail that runs south to north through Essex County, Ontario. Connecting the towns of Leamington and Tilbury on nearly 40 km of trails, it also passes through Staples and Comber. The path is ideal for hiking and biking, but also allows horseback riding, snowshoeing and cross-country skiing in certain areas. In fact, the trail is described as mixed, meaning that it is made up of bike paths, country roads and unpaved trails: take the opportunity to admire the different landscapes and changing vegetation of these diverse environments.
The route passes through several municipalities, leading to various facilities such as rest and picnic areas. Note that the Essex-Chatham segment extends at both ends: the access points suggested below are not official entrances.
It's a free adventure! Leashed dogs are permitted.
