Concession 4 Trail

Mississippi Mills' unopened municipal road allowances offer quality walking trails. They proceed more or less linear through unopened municipal roadways and are often used by horse riders, walkers and the occasional ATV and dirt bike plus snowmobiles and cross-country skiers in the winter. Being unopened and un-maintained, there are no residences to pass by. There are though, remnants of the old log fences from pioneer days, winding their way through mature woodlands and various wetlands. In some places, the trails pass agricultural fields, the typical “back forty” acres of active farms. Of course, these are out of bounds to trekkers. Concession 4: This trail can be accessed from either Clayton Road or Wolf Grove Road (County Road 16).For Clayton Road access, travel north from Almonte on Highway 29 towards Pakenham 3 km to Clayton Road.

Turn west on Clayton Road, go 6 km. to Ramsay Conc. 4. As there are several residences along the opened part of the road, you might want to simply drive to the end of the opened part of the road, get out and walk the rest.This trail also passes through a large wetland although the right-of-way is usually high enough to pass along the ridges.From the south end, drive along Wolf Grove Road (County Road 16) to Ramsay Conc. 4. Turn north and go just 400 meters to Old Union Hall Road. Park here and the trail is before you.
