DUNNVILLE GRAND TOUR
The Dunnville Grand Tour is a weekend-long event for cyclists of all skill levels.
Whether coasting by the banks of the Grand River or cruising along the picturesque shores of Lake Erie, the greater Dunnville area offers some of the best recreational cycling opportunities in Southern Ontario.
The goal of the weekend-long event is to promote the trails and cycling friendly routes of the area that could help to elevate Dunnville to a cycling destination
The Dunnville Grand Tour is a recreational tour and not a race, which allows you to experience the scenic routes at your own pace. The ride take place on paved roads which are clearly marked with arrows.
Riders will receive downloadable maps and turn by turn instructions for their chosen route. Rest stops along the way will provide refreshments, fruits, granola bars, snacks, and washrooms. A pasta lunch will also be served at the end of the ride. During the tour, SAG vehicles will patrol the road and offer assistance to riders.
