THE TRANSCANADA TRAIL
Longest in the World
This swings past not far from the property and the local Planning have no objections to the creation of an international Adventure Biking Centre being built.
Canada is in the process of constructing the world's longest recreation pathway, the Trans Canada Trail. When completed it will total more than 21,500 km (13,362 miles) in length. The east-west route from Saint John's, Newfoundland to Victoria, British Columbia will measure in the vicinity of 10,000 km (6,200 miles). Travelling by highway is actually about 9,000 km from coast to coast but the trail makes lots of scenic detours. A second leg of the Trans Canada Trail, will run north from Calgary, Alberta through the Yukon to the Arctic Ocean.
Development of recreation paths for biking, walking and in certain cases, other activities such as horseback riding is proceeding at fast pace in all regions of Canada. Many provinces have trail-building projects underway that will include sections of the TCT. The trail will actually be woven together from hundreds of local trails such as the Galloping Goose in British Columbia, the Petit Témis in Quebec and New Brunswick and PEI's Confederation Trail.
The Trans Canada Trail is under development and new trails are being completed on an ongoing basis.
