Whisky Run Golf Club

Whisky Run Golf Club is just a short drive from Niagara Falls and the Peace Bridge.Whisky Run GC is unique among Niagara golf courses, offering three entirely different golf experiences - the woodland, executive length Owl Course, the watery, links style Serpent Course, and the Parkland Fox Course. Each nine differs not only in appearance but in length and difficulty as well. Designed to challenge yet satisfy golfers of all playing abilities. The course has a good mix of short but challenging par-3's, par-4's of all shapes and sizes, and par 5's that reward strategy and good shot making, including #6 on the Serpent - one of the best Par-5's in Niagara.

What a gem! Short drive from St Kitts and so worth it! Lovely golf course, especially love the "Fox" where you REALLY do see foxes all over the course! Employees so friendly, nothing is too much trouble. Stayed for dinner the first time the other night, food was AMAZING! I had the Buffalo chicken wrap which was excellent and my son and cousin had the "Whisky burger" which was absolutely excellent! Fries to die for, seriously. Just a note, if staying to eat, you must go inside to place your order for food at the bar and the servers will bring it out to you on the patio, we weren't aware of this so waited 15 mins without being served before we approached someone.

Greater Niagara Circle Route

Reviewed By LisaR94 - Owen Sound, Canada

Did a 2.5 day trip of the 150k route. Rented e-bikes from Zoom Leisure Bikes and had a fantastic time. We started in Niagara on the Lake, made our way down to Port Colborne along the Welland Canal, over to Fort Erie and north to Niagara Falls to end back up at Niagara on the Lake. Love travelling and not have to use a car. Lots of exercise, great food and wine. Highly recommend.

The Welland Canals Parkways Trail

This trail follows the canal along its west bank from St. Catharines through Thorold, Welland, and Port Colborne. In Thorold, the path crosses to the "Thorold Island" created between the old third canal and the current fourth canal in Welland, it follows the old fourth canal through the city, paved on both sides of the canal. The trail zigzags across the canal in Port Colborne until it meets the Friendship Trail at Seaway Park.

On a recent cycling trip to the Niagara Peninsula we went along the Welland Canal starting at Lake Ontario in St Catherine's. The trail runs from Lake Ontario to Lake Erie. Approximately 50km. Stopped in Welland for a coffee at a small Cafe which prides itself with its board games . Its Welland first Board Game Cafe I believe. It's right on the canal on the West side corner at the end of the bridge, which is one way so be careful use the sidewalk. The trail path is so picturesque and the path is in great shape. You follow the elevation of the canal and at the end of the path in Port Colbourne you can pick up the Friendship Trail which will take you on to Fort Erie. Highly recommend this trip.
