This area is pristine wilderness with creeks flowing through rolling foothills and mature forests surrounding the trails. You'll find a network of cross country trails of varying length and difficulty. Most are narrow trails with continuous corners and hills, providing an exhilarating flow and constant workout. |

Turn left onto Centre Ave. This section of road is 40km/hr for kids, pets and wildlife. Please slow down.
