Route

After Belleville, the Waterfront Trail formally resumes in Deseronto where you'll see signs marking the way. You have two choices -stay on Main St, and continue to Napanee or detour onto Water St to get a closer look at the Bay of Quinte. Centennial Park affords some lovely views of Deseronto Yacht Club and its charming boathouses. Moments away in downtown Deseronto you'll see the historic Town Hall in the beautiful Rathbun Park, and the Post Office, one of five post offices in Canada recognized by Canada Post for its architecture and heritage. The Town publishes a map listing all the notable buildings for heritage buffs.
