POV: you say yes to 145 km on two wheels 🚲 Our Local Wanderer took on the rail trail from Sydenham to Clarendon Station, chasing views, snacks, small-town stops, and a few “are we there yet?” moments along the way. Worth it? Absolutely. #ComeWander #LocalWanderer #OntariosHighlands #CyclingOntario #RailTrail

More scenes from our fabulous 5 day bike trip on the K&P Trail and Cataraqui Trail. Starting/finishing in Kingston. 240km in total. Pics are in no particular order. Will definitely be back on these trails soon and hope to push further north on the K&P Trail. About 14km north of Sharbot Lake we passed by @clarendonstation We have heard it's a great place to stay. I included a pic of Clarendon Station 😊 It's right on the K&P Trail. What did we like the best? Hmm... Well for sure just the feeling of being completely removed from everyday life, the city!! Really feeling like you are in the middle of nowhere. And it's a beautiful nowhere! 😊 Vast marshlands and wildlife habitats, rivers, lakes... and the way the trails cut through the rocks is super cool. Nothing beats the sound of your tires rolling over the gravel!

Planning a Ride the Highlands adventure this season? Here's one tip: book your accommodations early. Motorcycle season is heating up, and accommodations are filling fast.

I’ve driven this loop more times than I can count and every single time I find something new to love about it. It starts just outside Ottawa and winds through some of the most underrated corners of Eastern Ontario. The thing about this road trip is that it doesn’t ask much of you. You don’t need to plan weeks in advance or drive for hours to feel like you’ve actually gotten away. You just need a long weekend, a full tank of gas, and a willingness to slow down. I’ve been piecing this route together for years, adding stops, swapping others out, finding the spots that are worth the detour and the ones that aren’t. This is the version I keep coming back to. The one I send to friends when they ask where to go. The one that made me fall in love with Eastern Ontario all over again. Every stop is in the reel. Save this and start planning. Have you done any of these stops before? Drop the ones you’ve been to below 👇 🇫🇷 La version française est dans les commentaires. #ottawa #ottawatravel #ottawaweekend #easternontario #ontarioroadtrip

Spring in Ontario is tricky. It’s not summer yet. But it’s also not cute winter anymore. And if you pick the wrong place… it’s just grey, slushy, and disappointing. So here are 7 Ontario spring trips that are actually worth it, and when to go. March?
Belleville and Sharbot Lake. Quiet trails, cozy stays, no crowds. This is your soft reset era. April?
Niagara Falls and Prince Edward County. Water levels are wild, wineries are calmer, and you can actually get a table without planning three weeks ahead. May? Sault Ste. Marie, Bruce Peninsula, and the Thousand Islands. This is when Ontario starts showing off. Bluer water. Epic lookouts. That first real “we made it through winter” feeling. These work as weekend getaways or strong day trips depending on where you live, but timing is everything. Save this for when you’re staring at the forecast and thinking, “where should we go?” Which one are you booking first? 👇 🇫🇷 La version française est dans les commentaires. #OntarioGetaway #SpringInOntario #ExploreOntario #OntarioRoadTrip #weekendinontariocanada

When fellow writer @vickiemlanthier invites you to stay at a lovingly restored train station tucked along the K & P Trail for a creative retreat in nature, you say yes without hesitation! Clarendon Station felt like stepping into a quieter rhythm of time. Built in 1917 by the Canadian Pacific Railway, the space carries its history while offering every modern comfort. During my stay, I wrote the first chapter of my fourth standalone book, wandered through fresh snow on a long winter hike, and spent the evenings playing Scrabble and Monopoly Deal, reading by the fire, and sharing homemade meals with plenty of warm drinks. The owners kindly left the Christmas tree up, adding an extra layer of warmth and coziness to an already special space. Clean, comfortable, and truly unique, this stay blended history, creativity, and rest so effortlessly! I left feeling inspired, refreshed, and deeply grateful to Vicki of @girlgonegood for the invitation and to the generous owners of @clarendonstation for sharing such a beautiful place on the K & P Trail. 🚂 🚂 🚂 🚂 🚂 #NatureAndArtRetreat #WomenWhoHike #GetOutsideAndPlay

Ontario’s Highlands is known for epic riding, but what really tops off a Ride the Highlands adventure are the incredible businesses that welcome riders to the region. We couldn’t deliver this experience without our motorcycle-friendly partners.
