Wilno - Barry's Bay - Kaszuby

This tour provides an opportunity to explore some of the Polish communities in Renfrew County.

The route begins in the village of Wilno, the first Polish settlement in Canada and home to a thriving artisan community. The abandoned railway bed provides safe biking from Wilno to Barry's Bay.

The route heads south to Kaszuby and Halfway where you can visit the Franciscan Chapel -- an outdoor chapel on the lake. There is a picnic and swimming area at the beach on Wadsworth Lake.

The trip back to Wilno provides a well earned downhill for every uphill climb.
