The Boathouse is a favourite for Guelphites to grab a cone and enjoy a nice view. There is a wall along the riverside where one can sit and look onto the river, watch people kayaking and canoeing. They also have nice lunches and of course, tea.
There is also a neat covered bridge nearby that is great for artsy photoshoots. For the more adventurous travelers, you can rent a kayak or canoe from Speed River Paddling and take a cruise down the Speed River.
Their opening times depend on the season, so check out their website for updates. Also, watch out for the geese!
