Hamilton

Hamilton sits at the western end of Lake Ontario with the Niagara Escarpment rising steeply to the south, creating dramatic elevation changes for both disciplines. Runners use the flat lakefront and urban parks for easy miles, but the Summer Sunset Series and Halloween 5 and 10K tap into the local racing community. Cyclists gravitate toward the escarpment climbs and the rural roads south toward Dundas and Aldershot, where the Rotary Tour de Dundas Gran Fondo and Tour d'Aldershot 2026 showcase the rolling terrain and longer Gran Fondo routes that define the region's cycling culture.
