Rural Stops

The winding country roads are calling. Explore the charm of rural Clarington and stop along the way to eat and shop.

A Country Path is a set route that will take you to unique businesses and attractions throughout northern Clarington. Enjoy a slower pace as you stop to meet local artisans, sample delicious food and browse handcrafted goods. 

Head to eastern Clarington and stop for freshly baked treats at Buttercup Hollow Pantry in Orono. Choose from locally grown produce and fruit at Allin's Orchard (open seasonally) and have a picnic.
