Spanning from Collingwood to Stayner, the Clearview Collingwood Train Trail is a crushed gravel, linear trail connecting to the Collingwood Train Trail. It follows an abandoned rail line which used to be part of the Ontario Simcoe and Huron railway system connecting Collingwood to Toronto. Prior to its abandonment in 1960 passengers enjoyed views of the tranquil landscape along the way.
Now used as a multi-use trail, hikers and bikers can enjoy this flat railbed, stopping in either Stayner or Collingwood for lunch or a break.
