OVERVIEW: As the route says, this is essentially a mix of everything. This is a big loop that is entirely on bike trails, with a few places on bike lanes. This is one of my favorite nature/urban mixups!
ROUTE DESCRIPTION: This route begins in Celebration Square in Missisauga. The burnthamthorpe trail is taken east towards the Etobicoke Creek Trail. That trail is taken a little north, then we continue east with the Pan Am Trail onto Eglinton Ave. Upon reaching Royal York Road, we will continue north until we reach Mallaby Park. The Humber Bay Recreation Trail is taken down south all the way to the waterfront. Afterwards, we visit High Park and complete an "Ellis Loop", where we will head back west, explore Mimico (eat), and continue heading west towards Port Credit on the Waterfront Trail. After refuelling and resting at Port Credit, we'll take Hurontario up to the Cooksville Creek Trail for a nice slow scenic ending to a long journey.
LENGTH: For more experienced cyclists, this whole thing can take 2-2 1/2 hours. For regular cyclists, it should take around 3 - 3 1/2 hours. With a meal and some rest, it may extend to 5 hours. Considering you leave at 8 AM, expect to be back no later than 1-2 PM.
I hope you enjoy this route! It is a mix of both nature and an urban ride, so you get to experience both. It also covers a good perimeter of Mississauga and the eastern end of Toronto. By the way, that Ellis Loop is optional - only if you need a good workout and want to explore that park.
