If there was ever an Ontario bikepacking route worthy of a dropper post and squish, it’s this one. The Three Amigos route combines a trio of the best trail hubs in southern Ontario – Hydrocut, Guelph Lake, Puslinch – into a longer distance mountain bike oriented tour. There is roughly 70 kilometers of singletrack included in the route so this is certainly no standard gravel grinder.

To connect these trail networks, the route makes use of community paths, forest trails and roads with bike lanes as much as possible.
