We see you, lady with the athleisure pants and un-scuffed sneakers putting four Splendas\u00ae in your latte. And you\u2019re not off the hook, either, guy-who-always-wears-gym-shorts-and-a-lanyard. Maybe you haven\u2019t been to any of these active cities lately, but we think it\u2019s time to put that sweatband and military-grade sports bra to the test in these top towns.<\/p>\n

Usually, this is the part where we say \u201cin no particular order,\u201d but today, we\u2019re going out on a limb to proclaim: Here are our picks of the most active towns in Canada, ranked!<\/p>\n
Running and Hiking:<\/em> 🏃♀️ 🏃♀️ To paraphrase Salt-N-Pepa, you\u2019ve got to push it when you\u2019re in Peterborough, Ontario. This means pushing your endurance along Trent Canal when you\u2019re riding your bike next to dozens of pros. Pushing your body up just a little higher off the safe ground at Rock and Rope Climbing Centre. And pushing your paddle skills on Little Lake to one day earn a glittering spot at the Canadian Canoe Museum in town. Or, if you\u2019d prefer to stand up as you propel the water far behind you, sign up for a class with Peterborough SUP. Outdoor activities in Peterborough demand you bring your best. So, bring it on.<\/p>\n
