Hi,

We are planning a 3 day (2 night) weekend trip from Burlington, Ontario into the Niagara region in early September.

The first day we'll be departing from Burlington and heading east along the waterfront trail, and on the last day we'll have to somehow end up back in Burlington. Unfortunately the Bike train to Niagara falls will be over by time we begin our trip, so it's more time we'll have to spend going between Niagara and Burlington.

We are not too familiar with the region, does anyone have suggestions on possible stops and destinations we should stop and see? We know want to spend at least the better part of a day (and likely one night) in Niagara on the Lake, so are mostly looking for cool things to check around NOTL, or en route to or from Burlington. We'd place a premium on scenic rides or neat nature-y things as opposed to tourist spots or local attractions.

Our group are not all hardcore cyclists, so we'd be open to taking lots of breaks, and likely wouldn't cover more than 60-70km in a day (we'd probably have at least one "light" day).
