Small shop for delicious home-baked mennonite goods. Think butter tarts, pies, rolls, bread, etc. They also serve coffee, garlic, cut flowers some frozen food, and they have a soft-serve ice cream machine. About a 3 minute drive from the house so it's worth a look!

Kind of a gimmicky place but the burgers are soooo good. They also have a wide variety of poutines. Right across the street from the Farmer's Market.

Classic, unfussy family-style restaurant. I've only been for breakfast but the place was buzzing with trucker types and retirees. The service was fast and the coffee was hot and plentiful. Great place for a classic breakfast.

Easy trail with some beautiful scenery. Go to the far end of the free parking lot behind home hardware in st Jacobs village and you will see a big sign for the trail head. The trail is hard packed and suitable for walking, biking and strollers. Dogs are allowed on leash and there are a few dog parks along the path. The path follows the Conestogo river which makes for some nice views and opportunities to spot wildlife.

An easy, level, stone-dust trail that is ideal for hikers of all ages. Seasonally, baby strollers can be maneuvered quite easily on the trail. Note that only the entrance on Three Bridges Rd is currently open.

The Wise Old Oak is this fantastic, fantasy-inspired tree carving that feels like it should be in Game of Thrones or Lord of the Rings. Instead you can find it along the Health Valley Trail. It's a great destination for a hike or mountain bike ride. It's a bit off the main trail but the pin location on gmaps is precise so you can follow that to find it.
