The drive

The Loyalist Parkway is Highway 33 across Prince Edward County. This drive starts at Carrying Place, the end nearer Trenton and Highway 401, and heads east through Hillier, Wellington and Picton, with the lakeshore, towns and wineries of the county along the way.

The last mile leaves Highway 33 for County Road 7 and climbs to Lake on the Mountain, above Adolphus Reach. Highway 33 itself continues to the Glenora ferry, which this drive leaves out.

It takes about an hour for 33.8 miles and is leisurely: gentle hills and bends, best taken with stops.
