Trail Closure - Section of Bruce Trail close indefinitely
A section of hiking trail between Harrison Park and Inglis Falls has been closed indefinitely, effective December 2, 2009. The closure is due to erosion issues. The affected section extends south from Harrison Park to the new bridge behind the Adminstration Centre, on the east side of the Sydenham River. This trail is also a portion of the main Bruce Trail. The trail will be diverted at Harrison Park to the west side trail. The route will follow the existing trail behind Forest Heights Estates, through the Arboretum, over the new bridge, joining back with the existing trail on the east side of the Sydenham River. Closure signs will be posted and new Bruce Trail white blazes will be painted along the west route. An updated map may be viewed here... |
