“On this hill would one day rise a church
to rival St. Peter's in Rome.” — John Galt
Covered Bridge
One of only two lattice covered bridges in Ontario is located on the
Eramosa Trail and serves as a pedestrian and cyclist crossing of the
Speed River. In 1992, 400 volunteer members of the Timber Framers
Guild erected the bridge, based on designs from the 1800s.

Guelph is home to three breweries and a winery, so come enjoy a
local brew or wine at one of our many restaurants and bars.
Old Quebec Street Shoppes
The mall is designed to resemble Quebec Street, one of the first streets
named when Guelph was founded, on which the mall was built.
Its decor is influenced by the limestone and brick buildings commonly
found in downtown Guelph.
