Trail Development has been identified by the Economic Development Office as a method to boost tourism product on the Reserve as well as increase opportunities for residents to engage in active transportation and recreation. Trails would enhance current assets such as the Amphitheatre and provide interpretation to historic trails such as footpath from the top hilltop to the traditional river hunting grounds. We have been working on reconciliation through traits development, focusing heavily on interpretation of history, tradition, language, and species at risk with all the projects we’ve been involved with.
The overall goal of this development is to establish a trail network for the community, another tourism trail network for economic development and an active transportation route along Country Road 13. Over 18 different trails have been identified and will require various levels of stakeholder engagement, planning and design. This report has been separated into 3 sections: the Amphitheatre development (tourism focused), the Community Health and Wellness Trail development, and recommended scope of work for County Road 13 Corridor Assessment including the trail linkages for the Economic Hub at Charles Street and the connection of Cameron Drive to Country Road 13. The targeted user for the first three projects is walking and hiking while the County Road 13 route will also include cycling. For the Community and Amphitheatre networks we propose a stacked loop trail system from easy to difficult with 3 of the trails complying with accessibility standards. As a result, each trail has been given a shovel readiness and priority scale.
