This is the north end of RIM Park and the end of the Walter Bean Grand River Trail section, but there’s no parking available here. If you’re planning to walk this route, you’ll need to park at the main RIM Park parking area that is located on Park Road. It’s a common point of confusion, so it’s worth planning ahead.

Running alongside the trail, the Grand River is the main backdrop for this entire section. For much of the route, you’re walking right beside the water, with open views in some areas and more filtered glimpses through trees in others. The river moves steadily here, and you’ll often see birds along the banks or on the water. It’s part of a much larger river system that flows south across the region toward Lake Erie, adding a quiet sense of scale to an otherwise easy, local walk.

This section of the Walter Bean Grand River Trail follows a wide, easy path alongside the Grand River, making it more of a relaxed walk or run than a traditional hike. The trail is mostly flat, with a mix of paved and gravel surfaces, and stays close to the water for much of the route. You’ll move between open parkland and shaded sections through trees, with occasional views of the river. It’s part of a much longer trail system that runs through the region, but this stretch is especially accessible and easy to follow.

Formerly known as the River Ouse, the Grand River flows through Ontario before emptying into Lake Erie's northern shore. Here, on the edge of Kitchener, its riparian area is full of wildlife, including a wide array of birds that can be quite active, thus making it a great bird watching spot.

Although this is just a small pond designed to manage storm runoff it does add a nice backdrop for photos and creates habitat for local and migrating birds.

Columbia Forest is a wonderful area in Waterloo that allows visitors to escape the city without needing to travel far. The many trails are popular with hikers and bikers so keep an eye out for other trail users.
