Lakefield Rotary Greenway Trail

Enjoy a 10km ride from Peterborough to Lakefield along the old CN line. Great scenic ride. The Lakefield Rotary Greenway railtrail is actually just a continuation of the paved Peterborough Greenway trail.

If you continue straight, over the dirt pile, you'll notice that the trestle is permanently open, and you can't get across the Trent canal. So you need to go East on Nassau Mills Rd. Over the bridge, and continue on the road for about half a kilometer.

The rail bed is typical of a maintained rail trail. It's made up of a crushed, hard packed, limestone screen. The trail passes through some marsh land, and over a bridge when you near Lakefield. Along the way, you will also have to cross several country roads, and private driveways. Information provided by the Peterborough website.
