Trailhead
The trailhead is the green bridge.

Trail
Cross the bridge and follow the gravel trail. The middle section of the trail often has water flowing across it. And just so you know, this trail is officially “Cooper Alfred Road.” It does see some bicycle and ATV traffic, as it is a route to downtown from the Anderson Road area. The trail ends by the spot where Anderson Road meets the TransCanada Highway.

Cautions

  • Parts of this trail can be very wet underfoot, especially in the spring.
