The Avon Trail is a 104 km hiking trail that runs from St. Marys to Conestogo, Ontario, Canada providing a link between the Thames Valley Trail and the Grand Valley Trail.
Most of the trail runs through scenic farmland and meanders along small rivers and streams. Since it is a continuous long distance trail, it also follows a few country back roads and occasionally, a busier route through the small towns between St. Marys and Conestogo.
The trail is marked at regular intervals by white rectangular blazes.
No motorized vehicles are allowed on the trail. Camping and fires are not permitted on the trail.
