Whats the turn around point for that ride? I know it leaves from Square 1 but do they turn back in Niagara on the Lake or Niagara falls?
It's a looped route, rather than go there, turn around, come back. It goes past Hamilton on Hwy 5 IIRC, then hooks a bit deeper into the Niagara region, goes to the ... West(?) end where Welland, etc. are, then goes all the way up the Niagara Parkway through the Falls and around NOTL and back to Toronto. I didn't ride the full "going there" route, but rode from the Falls using their route - all was nice and well. Both times I went out there for fun I used the same basic route to both go and come back as the "coming back" is on the link below. There are some killer cherries at Cokers Lane/50 Rd (right before the escarpment climb, too!) or if you catch it later in the summer, pears
I still have the basic cue notes I made based/copied from the hairshirt route online:
