Your Dog's Favorite Hikes In Ontario

Submitted by Mark and Pal
The Nokomis Trail. We found this trail while we we were driving through Canada, right on the road in Lake Superior Provincial Park. It was a steady but easy climb up through a spurce forest along the spectacular rushing waters through the Old Woman River valley. There are plenty of chances to walk in and around the water on ancient cobble beaches. We had never seen anything like it.

We like to hike with our dog in the bush north of Gogama Ontario. The lakes and streams are a wonderful place for her to paddle and she runs so freely along the shield rocks there that her pads often bleed unless we restrain her. Audrey (our Jack Russell Terrier) also hikes through the Niagara Gorge with us and in the expansive open forest behind our home in Sutton Ontario. She hikes around our side of Lake Simcoe when we allow her to go and she hikes along the lake walkway in Burlington Ontario.

There is a trail in Guelph, Ontario along the Eromosa River. It goes through neighbourhoods and behind a factory and close to the university and by very active baseball diamonds. On the one side the picturesque Eromosa on the other the places where childhood memories were made.
This is a fantastic trail for dogs and their companions.

One of my favourite trails and my dogs jasmine, is found in South-Eastern Ontario North of Napanee at the Sheffield Conservation Area
on Highway 41. The trail loops around 5 small lakes, with limestone and shield rocks everywhere. It is especially beautiful in the fall
with barely anyone else there. Jasmine runs free and swims whenever she wants. I highly recommend this trail for a 2 or 3 hour journey.

The University of Guelph Arboretum

A beautiful 165 hectare park-like setting with native trees, specialty gardens, forests and a boardwalk through marshland.
Lots of variety for a great walk with your dog. Dogs allowed on leash.
Preservation Park
Located on Kortright Road between Scottsdale Drive and Edinburgh Road. A 27 hectare forested area. My favourite urban forest for a quiet walk with my dog. At the far end of Preservation Park near the Hanlon expressway is a leash-free zone (ward 6 hydro corridor)

Waterloo, Ontario
Bechtel Park
5 acres of fenced-in leash-free dog park plus acres of trails through the forest (forest is a leashed area). A great place to socialize and exercise your dog and yourself. One caveat: Waterloo has a ban on pit bull type dogs.
