Hickson Trail

Once a piece of rail line from Stratford to Port Dover, this land was purchased by the Ministry of Natural Resources.

Hikers, cyclists, equestrians and birdwatchers now use this trail; unfortunately, there is not a bridge over the Braemar Creek, which makes it difficult to access the northern part of the trail.

Please visit Cycle Ontario for more information on the Hickson Trail
