Communities collaborate to promote cycle tourism

PERTH COUNTY – Perth County Tourism, Destination Stratford, and the Town of St. Marys have joined forces to grow and promote cycle tourism across the region. These tourism entities recognized that cycle tourism is growing rapidly across the province and are actively collaborating to ensure their destinations can embrace this economic opportunity.

Keen to welcome cyclists, Perth County Tourism, Destination Stratford, and the Town of St. Marys have been working together to develop, enhance, and promote their cycle tourism assets to position their region as a premier cycle-friendly destination in Ontario. The latest exciting development from these efforts is a new and improved joint cycle route map featuring city, rural, and gravel signature routes. The map showcases 13+ signature routes ranging anywhere from 7-kilometre city rides, 75km mixed gravel/paved rides, and 230km multi-day rides.

You can pick up a hard-copy map at several locations across Perth County, a few of which include: Any Municipal Office in Perth County (North Perth, Perth South, Perth East, West Perth); Destination Stratford, 47 Downie St., Stratford; and St. Marys Town Hall, 175 Queen St. S., St. Marys.
