Excursion à vélo d’une journée de Scarborough à Ajax

Set off from Scarborough, a vibrant Toronto suburb known for its dramatic bluffs and eclectic food scene, and make your way northeast toward Ajax, a lakeside community with a laid-back vibe. This 36 km ride keeps things interesting, merging mostly smooth pavement with a mix of dedicated cycleways (more than half the journey!) and some quiet suburban roads.

You'll weave past parks, urban neighborhoods, and maybe catch glimpses of Lake Ontario’s blue as you go. With just over 250 meters of climbing, the route will give your legs a friendly challenge, but it never gets too steep. The ride is mostly on asphalt, so you’ll have a comfortable roll—just note there are a handful of unpaved sections and the occasional gravel patch. Ajax greets you at the finish with its scenic waterfront and plenty of green spaces, perfect for a post-ride break. If you’re up for a smooth, urban-to-lakeside adventure, this route is a solid pick!
