Itinerary

Huntsville
We meet in the heart of downtown for a 90-minute, <1 km guided walk designed to orient you to the town’s layout and history.
We will visit the iconic green swing bridge to discuss the town's early development before walking up Main Street, then back down to River Mill Park. Here, I will tell you the hidden stories, and explain how the Free Land and Homestead Act and the rugged Canadian Shield shifted our identity from fur-trading, to farming, to a tourism destination.
Throughout the walk, I can provide you specific, local recommendations for the best coffee, dinner, and breakfast spots in town. You will leave with a deeper, more personal connection to Huntsville's past.
