À propos

St. Jacobs might look like a town frozen in time, but its history tells another tale. This small village blends the modern and traditional but always stays connected to its roots.

This town has made a big name for itself, and the story is best told through intriguing local tales: the milling company that pioneered new technology in 1875; the early schoolteacher from Sierra Leone, the woman whose love for books built the library; the local boy turned famous hockey player and a hardware store that became a nation-wide company.

The walk is 75 min and covers 1.1km walking.

Masks are encouraged. Even though we are outdoors, it's not always possible to maintain physical distance on narrow town streets where there may be crowds
