The Great Lakes Seaway Trail runs along the southern & eastern shore of Lake Ontario, as well as along the St. Lawrence River. The trail is as rich in history as it is in scenery. Many battles during the War of 1812 were fought on this shore. Islands in the river have disappeared after horrific murders and mysterious men tried to hide from their indiscretions among them. Along the Seaway Trail, a house was built for Napoleon Bonaparte before he died in exile. And spirits of soldiers remain stationed their post.
