Waterfront Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Cycleway

Following the Lake Ontario shoreline, the Whitby section of the Waterfront Trail offers long, easy walking and cycling routes with steady lake views, breezy open stretches, and access to several parks and marina areas. The path is mostly paved and flat, running past Lynde Shores, Whitby Harbour, Iroquois Beach, and the waterfront promenade, with plenty of spots to stop for views of the lake. Boardwalk sections, shaded pockets, and signed wayfinding make it simple to follow, and it connects seamlessly to the rest of the Great Lakes Waterfront Trail. A scenic, reliable lakeside route ideal for relaxed rides, long walks, or sunrise outings by the water.

Whitby Harbour is a historic and important port on Lake Ontario. It is known for its sheltered basin, which facilitated regional trade, particularly grain exports, in its early history.
Today, it is a central hub of the town of Whitby, serving both commercial and recreational purposes. The marina offers over 300 berths and is home to the Whitby Yacht Club. (Visit June 4, 2025)
