Collingwood Waterfront Trail
Historically, the waterfront has been the focal point for the shipbuilding industry. Today, a series of interconnected waterfront trails offer a fascinating walk through the history of Collingwood through wetlands, parks and an arboretum.
Enjoy the views over Georgian Bay and of the Blue Mountains on the other side. The waterfront trails are connected to a myriad of other trails and bike routes in the Town of Collingwood, and with the Georgian Trail to Meaford.
Directions: Highway 124 or Highway 26 to Collingwood. Turn west on First Sreet. Then go north on Highway 26 to Balsam Street. Park and go to start of trail.
