    Tips

    November 15, 2025

    Running along the edge of Ontario’s famous Cheltenham Badlands, this trail gives you curated views of the striking red-and-rust shale formations that make the area so unique. The route follows a boardwalk and fenced lookout points designed to protect the fragile landscape while still letting you experience its wave-like contours up close. It’s a short but memorable walk, often paired with the Bruce Trail sections that run nearby. Expect a mix of forest paths and open viewpoints — and one of the most visually distinctive geological sites in southern Ontario.
