Maitland Trail

The Maitland Trail has segments that range from easy to challenging, so it is possible to choose an area according to the desired level. However all sections have their own beauty: the Maitland River Valley is a beautiful natural environment and hikers tend to come again and again. Morever, there are other excellent nearby trails cared for by the Maitland Trail Association, so you have variety to choose from. The Maitland Trail Association was formed on July 2, 1975 with the proposal to build a trail which would follow the path of the Maitland River.

The Maitland Trail Association encourages hiking, cross-country skiing, snow shoeing, all-terrain cycling and nature study as a form of recreation along this trail. The trail is built largely on private land through the courtesy of the landowners. Permission of the landowners is granted for the trail as a footpath and is not intended for the use of motorized vehicles of any type.
