This trail skirts Homer Watson Park along the Grand River, and is also part of the longer Trans Canada Trail that follows the river through forested sections, open riverbanks, and quiet natural areas in Kitchener. In this section, the trail passes mature maple and beech forest, river overlooks, and peaceful stretches beside the Grand River that inspired many of painter Homer Watson’s landscapes.
