Starkey Hill Trail
Take some birdseed with you on your hike out to Starkey Hill and chances are good you can coax a black capped chickadee or two to land on your hand - especially during the winter months.

Guelph - CNR Spurline Trail - Royal Recreational Trail
The CNR Spurline Trail is an urban trail running, as it does, behind houses, beside schools and businesses - despite that it's a more natural and pleasant environment to traverse than the surrounding roads. The trail itself is earth, not concrete, so is popular with joggers as well.

Guelph Covered Bridge - Royal Recreational Trail
In 1992 400 volunteers from the Timber Framers Guild worked near the confluence of the Eramosa and Speed Rivers building this covered bridge using an 1880's design. There is a video of the " 120' pedestrian lattice-covered bridge over the Speed River in Guelph, Ontario. Dramatic scenes of some 400 people raising by hand the two large side trusses of the bridge, assembling the roof, and then winching and pushing the completed bridge into position over the river. Scenic views of the finished structure."
