Starting at the historic Hope Mill on the Indian River this route takes riders on flat roads and the Trans Canada Trail all the way to Hastings, where cafes and refreshments await. The route is a combination of very quiet paved and gravel back roads as well as the TCT. Winding through quiet farmland with occasional views over both the Indian River and the east end of Rice Lake, this route is a real gem and very much worth the drive to Hope Mill.
