RWGPS Route Links
The Routes This week's routes will start in nearby Odessa, and head north up into the farm country of Lennox & Addington County. The B, C and D routes will take a refreshments break in Yarker (see the picture below of the once magnificent mill in Yarker), while the A route will stop in Tamworth at either the Quartermaster's Store & Quirky Café or A1 Corner Restaurant. All of the routes will return past our local cheese factory in Wilton established in 1867!
