Flowing 280 km from Dundalk to Lake Erie, the Grand River is one of southern Ontario’s defining waterways, weaving past forests, farmland, conservation areas, and the urban centres of Kitchener–Waterloo, Cambridge, and Brantford. Long stretches of the river are lined with multi-use trails and lookout points, giving easy access to calm water views, wide bends, and seasonal wildlife. With its mix of cliffs, floodplain meadows, quiet backwaters, and heritage sites, the Grand River offers some of the region’s most scenic and varied riverside walking and cycling terrain.
