St. Catharines-Niagara

St. Catharines sits on the Niagara Escarpment's south face, giving runners immediate access to steep terrain—the Don McMaster Memorial 12 Mile Creek Trail Half Marathon and Run for the Grapes Half Marathon both exploit the region's dramatic elevation changes and vineyard-studded landscape. Cyclists use the Midweek Crit Weekly Series as their summer bread-and-butter racing, while the escarpment's 100m+ climbs and the flatter wine country south toward Beamsville offer training variety within 10km of town centre.
