The Algonquin Park to Georgian Bay's Killbear Provincial
Park Trail
In the summer of 1998, following the recommendations
from a joint meeting of Town Councils (Parry Sound and
Huntsville), the Park-To-Park
Trail Association was formed. Currently the trail
is a work in progress. The Park-To-Park Trail is truly
a 'regional' initiative. The trail system is a multi
use trail system. The long term objective is to provide
seamless trail system encompassing community trails,
snowmobile routes, historic colonization and logging
roads, former rail beds, new links and some secondary
roads. |
