Montgomery’s Secret Paths Food Hike

Join us for a pleasant 8.5 km hike through some of L. M. Montgomery’s favourite trails and locations. Food entertainment and little surprises will be part of your journey.

You will start your hike with a breakfast sandwich, fruit, coffee or tea at Samuel’s in Avonlea Village. Begin your walk through the gentle slopes of Cavendish Grove to the Dunelands Trail and Cavendish Beach. Then proceed to a flat terrain walk to Cavendish corner. Crossing the street, tiptoe through the Haunted Wood and on to Montgomery Park where you can sit with Maud for a picture. You will be hosted by the Cordial Café for a nutritious blueberry scone and a comfort station stop. You can also refill your water bottle while at the Park. Take a few minutes to take a break and listen to the entertainment provided by the talented Olivia Blacquiere.

From Montgomery Park, walk towards the Site of L. M. Montgomery’s Home and back out to Cavendish corner. Then go down Hammie’s Lane and back through Cavendish Grove, down Clark’s Lane to Avonlea Village for lunch. The location for the lunch is being provided by La Rose Bistro who will serve smoked salmon on parsnip latkes with chive crema and Lone Oak Beer Garden serving up mussels, nachos and sweet potato fries. One free glass of wine or beer is included with your meal.

Rounding up the experience will be your chance to try a cone of Canada’s favourite ice cream from Cows. All this with some local entertainment!

This hike will give you a chance to discover the secret paths in the area and provides a multitude of photo opportunities.
