A scenic trail for hiking, bike riding, walking and running! This trail starts at Glenn Burney Rd and continues all the way connecting to James Bay Junction, altogether 13+kilometres. Here you’ll find BIG BOULDERS, very nice lakes, swamps, rivers, wildlife including deer flies and lots of happy mosquitoes that will make your walk turn to running! There’s also a lot of stone benches and very informative signs along the way. The birds are just awesome! Come see.
Went biking with hubby on the trail and we have to say that ATV's have wrecked it. No longer properly covered with gravel the ATV's have exposed lose rocks and gouged out material creating potholes, which makes riding a bike on it unenjoyable.
Great trail for walking, biking, hiking, or jogging. Lots of wildlife and very flat since it follows an old railway path. There are motor vehicles allowed so be aware of ATVs and snowmobiles (depending on the season). One of our favourites to hit with the kids and a coffee!
Shared with ATVs,motorcycles and dog-walkers, this former railway bed is an otherwise nice hike with views of beaver dams, turtles and birds...BUT personally, the smell of diesel, dust, and noise of 8 vehicles going by on a Sunday at noon kinda turns me off. I'd recommend the nearby Rugged North Shore Trail instead.
Beautiful trail through the wetlands. Saw beaver, garter snake, and waterbirds. If you're nearby go do it! (Cycle or walk both fine in summer)
This trail was beautiful, full of wildflowers and Canadian shield rocks. Ate some blackberries as well! Five to seven minutes later you will come to an opening with a lake on the right and a bog on the left. You can keep going and there are few ppl in between hiking or walking their dogs. Was a very relaxing pretty walk.
Great trail to get some exercise and bring the pooch too! While not technically allowed (when is it?) All us locals walk the dogs leash off as long as they're friendly and won't fight other dogs. I'd guess the trail is about 5km total. Ontario scenery for sure, but watch for ATVs in summer and snowmobiles in winter ;
This is a great little trail. Most popular for people on ATV's and Snowmobiles. However it gets a lot of regular traffic from people commuting to and from work and also people walking their dogs. Its about 6.7 km in length if you go from here and end at the Forest Hill Grocery
