    Hiking and Biking in Ontario, Canada

    I'm posting these because Joe90 asked nicely to see some of the local trails. I've mostly been walking and hiking on some of the Greenbelt trails in Ottawa, Ontario recently. I had my bike out for a week or so, but the weather hasn't be great the last few weeks. I'll add to this over time. I'm a bit of a nature lover, and spring is great to see all the trees and flowers bloom.


    I recently hiked for a few hours on the Mer Bleu bog trail in the Ottawa Greenbelt. Here are a few pics.







    Walked past this Teepee which was built with sticks and logs.

    Mirror reflection


    Hiking with my brother













    I believe this rabbit is a pet to someone because we got so close and it never ran away.

    ^You're welcome, tc. I'll post more when I have more. I'm hoping for warmer and sunnier weather soon. I enjoy being in a forest surrounded by quiet and tall trees.

    Wonderful pics Mizz Monroe.

    Love the mirror reflection and teepee especially.

    Keep them coming.

    You're a breath of fresh air in these parts.

    Can't wait to be back in Toronto.

    These pecs are near Ottawa, right? I heard real estate went through the roof there too.

    Very nice pics MM.

    After the Co-Vid I will be trying to make it back to those parts.

    I would draw your attention to the pic with the teepee stack as I think I may see a pile of Grizzly scat off to the right of the teepee.

    Cheers.

    Hopefully he can tidy up a few of the pics and re-post them.

    Without realising how parked cars add to the timeless charm.

    Real Ontario doesn't begin until west of Sudbury and maybe even west of Sault St. Marie

    Yes, in Ottawa..the cost of living is high here for sure.
    Make sure you are vaccinated before visiting Toronto - highest place in Ontario for number of cases, but slowly going down.

    That is funny.. I do often wonder if I'll see a bear in the woods.. and when I am by myself there aren't any people around for miles.

    There is a lot of natural beauty in those parts.. I've been past Sudbury and Sault St. Marie.. (Manitoulin Island comes to mind).
