Join Former Ontario Minister of Natural Resources, Jerry Ouellette, who takes us on his fascinating journey with chaga, a health-boosting fungus. We also welcome Patrick from the Ontario Trails Council, who shares his passion for promoting trail use across Ontario and his personal connection to the Bay of Quinte. 

Explore Ontario's vast trail system with insights into gravel biking, winter biking, and challenging mountain biking terrains. Learn the differences between managed and unmanaged trails and the importance of trail insurance and municipal roles in maintenance. We'll also highlight Ontario's longest trails, like the Trans-Canada Trail and the Great Lakes Waterfront Trail, and discuss the collaborative efforts of smaller communities in building these trail networks.

As we turn our attention to trail etiquette and safety, we offer essential gear tips for beginners, the importance of protective gear, and practical advice for staying safe.
