Why use abandoned rail lines for the trail?
Abandoned railway lines offer a broad spectrum of recreational opportunities. Characteristically, these right-of-ways offer the perfect setting for recreational use including relatively mild grades, flat surfaces, natural landscapes, picturesque surroundings, and hundreds of kilometers of primarily unused green-way corridors. These corridors provide a superb opportunity for trail development and pass through many Ontario communities providing easy, safe access to populated rural and urban areas.
