Shakespeare to the Shoreline
Fall is the perfect time for countryside and coastline getaways, and you’ll find both in the pastoral heartland of Huron and Perth Counties. Double-click on the map to zoom in. Sample and savour the fall harvest of Huron and Perth Counties—the relaxed, rural heart of southwestern Ontario—when you travel the routes from Shakespeare to the Shoreline. Getaway and explore the themed self-guided routes that take you along historic Highway 8, out of the city through charming Perth County villages, to the golden sands of Lake Huron’s shoreline and Ontario’s West Coast. Harvest the bounty of our two Counties, stopping at farm gates, picking the best of the perfect fresh fruits, vegetables and baked goods at local farm markets. Meet the folks who grow the food, prepare it and provide it for your table. Seven themed routes take you away from the big-box hustle to the pleasant bustle of broad main streets in the towns and villages that dot this lush fall landscape. Take your time to dine and enjoy a culinary experience in historic dining rooms, bake shops, bistros and pubs, with chefs who offer the finest local produce on their menus—fresh from the fields of Perth and Huron Counties. |
