Heath Valley Trail
Highlight (Segment) • Trail
Heath Valley Trail is a picturesque 2.5-kilometre route that follows the Conestogo River between St. Jacobs and Conestogo. Originally part of the old Conestogo River Trail, it winds through farmland, forest, and riverside meadows, with occasional views of grazing horses and cows. The trail is mostly gravel and well-maintained, perfect for a peaceful walk surrounded by nature.

Conestogo River View
Highlight • Viewpoint
From this quiet bend in the trail, the clear Conestogo River is slow moving, edged with smooth stones and lush, thick summer greenery. You can see right to the bottom near shore, where pebbles and patches of grass meet the water. It’s a beautiful, peaceful spot to pause and take in the view before heading back onto the trail.
