Laurel Trail runs for about eight kilometres alongside Laurel Creek, connecting Uptown Waterloo with the University of Waterloo and down to Columbia Lake. It’s a multi-use route with a mix of paved and gravel sections, so you’ll be sharing it with cyclists in places. The terrain is mostly level, following the creek through a mix of urban green space and more natural stretches. It’s easy to dip in and out of, but also works well as a continuous route if you follow it end to end.
