hi, i want to bike from barrie to midland. i can get to phelpston, but i couldn’t find the trail to elmvale last time. how can i find it at phelpston? no one locally knows about it.
thanks
An entry on ontariobiketrails.com from October 2017 reads: “There is a big section of the trail missing between Elmvale and Phelpston that makes the trail almost unusable for biking. The snowmobilers get to use it in winter, but the original rail space is now a farm field in the summer. Please fix this by at least providing a path between the fields for use by walkers and bikers.”
