Road Trips for Everyone

Try one of our Top 5 Road Trips, mapped out and ready for you to start exploring Northumberland County. Drive through the rolling hills, visit beautiful beaches and stop at our favourite places to shop and eat. Want to explore even further? Try one of our themed drives below.

Woman with hair net holding tray of cheese curds with fridge of cheese behind

A sampling of local food and views of the countryside. Visit the Empire Cheese factory and grab some beer from Church-Key Brewing to take home with you.

Curds, Cows & Beer

Cream filled donuts on tray

From goats to bees, and locally-made chocolate to bountiful roadside farm stands and markets, take the Flavour Trail for a fun and delicious Northumberland experience.

Flavour Trail

Hawk standing on nest with blue sky in background

A fun trip that is scenic and even better before the leaves start to block out the views of local birds.

Spring Birding/Trans Canada Trail

Flowers in basket on old bike leaning against tree

View public gardens on a self-guided tour. Find garden related events, nurseries and wildflowers in rather unique locations.

Garden Tour

Dog smelling lilacs on bush

The end of May is an excellent time to celebrate spring and enjoy full lilac trees. Drive through the rolling hills to see awe-inspiring fields of purple and white blooms.

Lilac Tour

Fall colours on trees on country road with houses

Plan a fall driving tour. From the middle of September through the Thanksgiving weekend in October, enjoy the fall colours that cover our rolling hills. 

Fresh Fall Road Trips

Christmas light display near harbour with snow and shovelled path
