WHERE are all the new trails?

In 2010, the city built $20 million work of new trails and cycling infrastructure. Completed days before the first snowfall, many of these trails are hidden and waiting to be discovered this spring!

The Winnipeg Trails Association is working hard and furiously to have maps of all these new trails for Spring 2011 – we are :

  • Working with the Prairie Pathfinders to develop a series of new detailed maps to add to our existing collection of trail maps
  • Working with partners to update the 2009 Winnipeg Cycling Map – a comprehensive city wide map of trails and cycling routes
  • Working with Online Business Systems to develop an INTERACTIVE map linked to Winnipeg’s new GOOGLE trail maps

Currently – SOME of these new trails can be found on the City’s Active Transportation website but this does not include the complete list.
