In 2016, Viamede Resort partnered with the Kawartha Land Trust to expand the trail network that runs through and around the property.
The 9 kilometers of trails are arranged into 3 major loops: the blue trails (3.5 km), yellow (2km), and red (3.5km), and are open to hikers, cross country skiers, snowshoers, dogs, and people.
Using a mix of land owned by Viamede Resort, Kawartha Land Trust, and various private landowners, the trails include Canadian Shield, limestone formations (The Chute), wetlands, and a beaver dam.
Disc Golf Course
The Peterborough Disc Golf Club built and maintains a challenging disc golf course on the Viamede property running through forest trails. Read more about the course here.
