Explore the historic Trent Severn Waterway and the quaint towns and villages the river runs through. The route is filled with incredible nature and landscapes, off-the-beaten-track experiences, and one-of-a-kind eats only locals know about. Follow the river by car, boat, or bike as it travels from Lakefield, Ontario down through Peterborough, Campbellford, Hastings and winds up in the beautiful Bay of Quinte in Trenton where the waterway enters Lake Ontario. Did you know the Bay of Quinte sits at the top of Prince Edward County? Take the bridge from Belleville across to PEC where the route joins our Featured Route ‘Scenic Border Towns of Lake Ontario – East’.
