The Rail Trail begins
(Y01) just behind
the U-Store-It buildings next to the cemetery on Bruce Ave. The
closest parking would be on Mahood-Johnston Dr.
Follow the former railway bed beside the
cemetery. The smooth stone dust trail passes 200 recently planted seedlings
and leads to the old railway trestle. You
are now entering the best bird watching area in the Municipality. If you
were to continue on, the former rail line will exit at Highway 21.
Turn left after the trestle
(Y02)
and take the three loop trail through the forest between the cemetery and
the lagoons.
Near the cemetery side pass
around the end of the fence, (Y04), and continue behind the ball diamonds. Keeping
to the right the trail then meanders beside a marshy area leading to Kincardine
Ave. Using the small bridge cross the road (Y09) and continue north on the
Adelaide St. extension.
This will lead to a bushy area and
bridge. Cross the river and continue to Kincardine Ave. Walking east on Kincardine Ave you
will find the Valley Trail (Green Trail) (G16) on the north side past the brick pump house just
before a driveway. If you get to Fraser Dr. you have gone too far.
