Chedoke Rail Trail

Hamilton is known as the City of Waterfalls - 125 of them! Dozens of falls can be found in Stoney Creek, Ancaster, Dundas, Hamilton and Flamborough. There are five major bike routes that take cyclists past a number of falls such as the Escarpment Rail Trail, Dofasco Trail Loop, Tews Falls Circuit, Chedoke Rail Trail and Hamilton-Brantford Rail Trail.

Hamilton has grown into a cycling-friendly community and today it provides a combination of off-road multi-use paths, on-street dedicated bike lanes and on-street signed bike routes for recreational riders and commuters alike. And if you tire halfway through your ride, conveniently hop on HSR bus, all of which are now equipped with bike racks on their front bumpers.

Hamilton Brantford Rail Trail

The Hamilton Brantford Rail Trail is actually two connecting trails, the West Hamilton - Jerseyville Trail maintained by the Hamilton Region Conservation Authority, and the Jerseyville - Brantford Trail of the Grand River Conservation Authority. They are both excellent and together make for a continuous ride of about 40 km.

The West Hamilton - Jerseyville trail was the first to be constructed, in 1993. It begins on the west side of Hamilton, near McMaster University, following the Dundas Valley for 18 km to the community of Jerseyville. The surface is an excellent fine granular. Past Jerseyville the trail is newer, having been constructed in 1996. The surface is of similar construction.
