Possum Ridge –University of Guelph

From the doors of the U of G Athletic Centre (AC) and back, this run is approximately 15km or 9+ miles and is perfect for the off day easy mileage type run or group type workout. Possum Ridge is a loop just off the Watson Road trailhead, approximately a 20min. Run from campus, and features a narrow and slightly more technical long climb in the middle.

Although many of the distance runners at Guelph haven't' actually seen a possum on the trail, head coach Dave Scott-Thomas swears that if your there running before 8AM you'll see them. 'Possum' leads to numerous other favourite trails and loops including 'Gun Club' and the 'Eden Mills' loop.
