About the Trail:

The Bridgenorth Trail celebrated its grand opening in 2010 after a group of dedicated volunteers came together with an idea to construct the trail as part of a vision to develop a system that links Bridgenorth, Ennismore and Lakefield. 

The trail is approximately 2.3 km long and runs from Brumwell Street to 5th Line.  The trail is lined with native trees and boasts a peaceful and tranquil setting amidst the Miller Creek Wetlands.  There are benches located along the Trail that provide a comfortable resting spot.  Trail heads located at Brumwell Street and the 5th Line feature parking and a large trail map identifying local points of interest. 

The Bridgenorth Trail provides residents and visitors an affordable and accessible recreation activity while enjoying the natural environment and promoting an active lifestyle. We invite you to take some time to enjoy this scenic trail by going on a leisurely walk, energizing run or a relaxing bike ride.  Whatever your choice, take the time to enjoy the Bridgenorth Trail!
