Outdoor Enthusiasts
If you are looking to spend a few days outdoors, you can certainly find a plethora of areas to explore right here in Windsor Essex. Either by foot or by bike, spend the day on one of the numerous nature trails and boardwalks – end up near the water for some beach time or perhaps a kayak ride. Grab fresh Lake Erie perch while in Kingsville or Leamington before hitting the links or visiting one of the local EPIC wineries.
