Highlights Along the Way

This route takes you through a beautiful piece of the Municipality of Trent Hills. Explore Campbellford and Warkworth and make sure you’ve got plenty of storage space on your phone, or have a dedicated camera, because there are some stunning views you’ll definitely want to document.

  • Take in the view from Ranney Gorge Suspension Bridge. A 300 foot bridge that carries you 30m above the Ranney Gorge and connects to Ferris Provincial Park.
  • Explore Campbellford and pick up donuts, local craft beer, cheese curds or ice cream and stop into small cafés and restaurants for delicious food.
  • Take a selfie with the Giant $2 Coin in Old Mill Park in Campbellford.
  • From the Healey Falls Lock, it’s a short walk to Healey Falls for a great photo opportunity.
  • In warmer weather, cool off with a swim at Crowe Bridge Park.
  • Take the twists and turns along Godolphin Road for great views, especially in the fall.
  • Walk around Warkworth and experience the friendliness of small town shops and cafés. Find locally made art, pick up some fresh cheeses and meats for a picnic, experience chocolate the way it was meant to be or do some shopping at local boutiques.
