We are fortunate to have diverse trail opportunities that offer something for many different users. Trail etiquette helps keep all users safe by using common sense, safety, and respect.

Here are a few of the common rules of courtesy and respect so all will enjoy themselves and stay safe on our trails.

For all  

  • Be aware of other trail users – stay alert – be pleasant to other users
  • Travel at a reasonable speed- slow down when approaching other trail users.
  • Do not block the passage of other users
  • No one is entitled to trail access – we all have to share the space!

Pedestrians

  • Walk on the right-hand side of the trail, with the flow of traffic.
  • Wear reflective clothing
  • If walking a dog, keep them on a leash at all times and clean up their messes

Cyclists

  • Cyclists must ride on the right-hand side of the trail, with the flow of traffic.
  • It is the law to have your bike equipped with a bell or horn. Use it to let others know you are approaching 
  • Ride in single file
  • Lower your speed when around other trail users – do not startle pedestrians

Off-Highway Vehicles (OHVs)

  • Riders must stay the right-hand side of the trail, with the flow of traffic.
  • It is the law to have your OHV registered and insured to use on public trails
  • Ride in single file
  • Lower your speed when around other trail users and nearby homes
  • Do not use trails after 11 pm at night or before 7 am in the morning
