The Millenium Trail system serves as a County-wide recreational facility for local residents and visitors. The trail corridor is 15 meters in width and 49 kilometers in length and a total land area of 73.5 hectares. The trail starts in Carrying Place and winds through The County to Picton with various vistas and natural landscapes.
Currently, only the 11 km portion from Danforth Rd to Hwy 33 east of Wellington has been upgraded for optimum useage
Although, predominantly rural, the corridor passes through several urban areas that are characterized by adjacent residents, street crossings and connections to other walkway systems.
The Trail is accessible at several locations throughout The County with specific hiking points in Picton, Wellington, Bloomfield and Consecon.
