My Walk

I've walked this route many, many times for exercise over the years. I decided to bring my camera with me to show you what I see on my walk.

My walk takes me through quiet neighbourhoods.

And then I am in Pleasantville where old buildings are being torn down


to make way for newer ones.


In Pleasantville I have a lovely view of Quidi Vidi Lake.


I then take the Virginia River Trail


which is part of the Grand Concourse and is a mix of boardwalk and easy walking trails.


After a few kilometres I reach Virginia Lake.



I usually turn around at this bridge just before Carrick Drive, but the trail continues as far as Windsor Lake (with a few street crossings in between).



After I retrace the trail for a short while it's then onto a smaller section of the trail.



I've seen and heard many birds but only photographed this crow.


It's a lovely walk, around 8km, great for exercise or just leisure.

I love seeing your route and your description of it. You should write more often!

Nice area. When I am in St Johns I stay in the Pleasantville area by Quidi Vidi Lake.
