Trans Canada Trail
The Trans Canada Trail (TCT) is a multi-use trail that will link all of Canada's provinces and territories together. The main purpose of the Trans Canada Trail is to showcase this great country and the diversity of communities within it, and teach people about the environment and the history of Canada. Building the Trans Canada Trail is the responsibility of the communities and regions through which it passes. Discovery Routes is an agent for the Trans Canada Trail through this region. Working together with partners across the region, the provincial representatives for the TCT and the TCT Foundation, we have identified a route for the trail and continue to work towards the goal of completing the trail system by 2010. Our current focus is the section of TCT between Callander and Commanda. The project is a major undertaking as it involves a variety of terrain in a highly rural setting. The pictures below tell some of the story. The highly anticipated completion of the link is expected by the spring of 2008. Discovery Routes would like to thank the Northern Ontario Heritage Fund Corporation, the Trans Canada Trail Foundation and the Municipality of Callander for their generous support of the project.
