3 days in Essex Itinerary

Essex is a town with a population of 20,427 in Essex County in southwestern Ontario, Canada, whose municipal borders extend to Lake Erie. Step out of Essex with an excursion to Point Pelee National Park in Leamington--about 40 minutes away. And it doesn't end there: do a tasting at Cooper's Hawk Vineyards and The Vines Restaurant, take an in-depth tour of Canadian Transportation Museum & Heritage Village, examine the collection at John R. Park Homestead & Conservation Area, and look for gifts at Cindy's Home & Garden.
