Elgin St Thomas Public Health
Looking for great locations to be active this fall?
The new Elgin-St. Thomas Cycling & Hiking Trail Map highlights that Elgin St Thomas has so many wonderful ways to be active. The map features routes where you can walk, hike, jog, cross country ski, and cycle on the beautiful trails and parks throughout Elgin and St. Thomas. Hiking, cycling and enjoying the outdoors are excellent activities to keep active year round.
Many of the routes included in the map are new and result from the Elgin St Thomas Cycling Master Plan which was adopted by all Elgin St Thomas municipalities in September 2014. The map also includes the location of additional recreational facilities that are available in Elgin-St. Thomas, such as parks, basketball courts, and outdoor skating rinks, just to name a few.
“Even though winter is just around the corner, as long as you’re bundled up there are plenty of trails that are beautiful to hike or walk throughout Elgin County.” Laura Crandall, Health Promoter.
The Elgin-St. Thomas hiking and cycling trail maps are available at Railway City Tourism, Elgin County Tourism, Elgin St. Thomas Public Health, and throughout the County at each Municipal office. Get your trail map today and start exploring what our community has to offer!
