Running
Cross country running is one of my favourite activities. I love exploring a new trail, taking some pictures, and sharing my journey with you. Hopefully, you will discover a new trail to explore with these posts and photographic tours.

Warbler Woods Visual Tour
Are you ready for a visual tour of Warbler Woods? Good, because I laced up my running shoes, grabbed my camera, and got out for a nice trail run. Entrances to nature trails often have a tight fence like this one. They are meant to stop dirt bikes, ATVs, and snowmobiles from tearing up the […]

Meadowlily Woods is only one of several natural jewels that exists in what is known as The Forest City, London, Ontario. I hit the trails this past weekend for a run and took my camera along to share the beautiful views with all of you. I hope you enjoy this visual tour of my run. […]

Springbank Park – Terry Fox Parkway
Springbank Park is absolutely gorgeous. It is located along the bank of the Thames River in London, Ontario. There are landscaped gardens, playgrounds, a small theme park, and over 30 kilometres of trails. A lot of weddings are held at the Civic Garden Complex. In fact, one was taking place just as I started my […]

Carolinian Trail – Pinery Provincial Park
Pinery Provincial Park is simply breathtaking. It is located on the shore of Lake Huron just south of Grand Bend. “The Oak Savanna and Freshwater Coastal Dune ecosystems which make up the park are extremely rare and fragile and are home to many equally rare or endangered plants, animals, and insects.” I really should have […]

The pond is fed by the streams of the Dorchester Swamp and agricultural land drainage. The Mill Pond Trail provides 3.5 km of walkways through a variety of natural habitats around the pond.” […]

Visual Tour Clark Wright C.A.
I love finding new places to go for a trail run. It’s fun to bring my camera along with me to present these Visual Tours as well. I’ve been running for months already this year but I have been hitting the same trails I shared with you already. That was until early this week when […]

Red Hill Valley – The Trail is Still There
When I was in high school, our cross country team always went to Red Hill Valley to do some nice trail runs. The valley was beautiful and it was a treasure to have this huge green space in the east end of the city. If you hiked off of the main trail, you could walk […]

My Trail Run Through the Swamp
It’s time for another visual tour of my trail run. This time, I hit the Lafarge 2000 Trail that runs alongside Beverly Swamp between the 8th concession and Highway 97 in Flamborough, Ontario, Canada. I started on the road a few kilometres away from the start of the trail. This hill was tougher to run […]

Westminster Ponds Trail Run
Well it is time for another visual tour of my run. This time, I hit the trails at Westminster Ponds in London, Ontario. The curious thing is that it is listed as an “environmentally significant area.” What a strange term to use. I wonder if they call the mall down the road a “commercially significant […]
