Gather your friends for the ultimate girl’s getaway this fall. Rest and recharge, enjoy delicious food and explore the trails in charming towns.
Day 1
Start your girl’s weekend with a stay in Paisley.
Go for a delicious dinner at The Paisley Common where they source local and fresh ingredients for their crowd-pleasing menu items. For other food suggestions, learn more about Paisley’s Food Scene.
Day 2
Let the smell of fresh coffee and bread guide you to Happy Hive Bakery and Cafe for a latte and tasty breakfast. Go on a relaxing stroll through Paisley and take in the historic buildings – keep an eye out for beautiful murals that make for the perfect photo op!
Paisley has a great selection of stores to visit like the Elora Soap Company, Della Bella Boutique, Florence’s Tchotchkes, and Orchard’s Landing. After some shopping, make your way to the Rail Trail, with great views and lookout points of the Saugeen River.
In the afternoon, make your way to Kincardine, a lakeside town along Lake Huron. Explore the bustling downtown for some shopping and enjoy a patio lunch with a great view at The Bruce or George’s on Huron. For a beautiful lakeside stroll, walk along the beach or boardwalk. Kincardine also has a great trail system, with one entrance point at Geddes Park. There you can walk through a labyrinth, enjoy a view of the Penetangore River and walk into the trails surrounded by beautiful, tall trees – you would never guess you were in the middle of town!
