About us

Meet the team

The trail is maintained and managed by The St. Margaret’s Bay Area Rails to Trail Association, a community-based volunteer organization dedicated to ensuring the beauty and safety of the Trail for all users to share. It is only through their continued hard work that the Trail is as good today as it has ever been.

Maintaining a busy, popular Trail of this size is no easy task. Time and money are needed to ensure that the Trail is not only fit for use but will be here for future generations.

If you would like to help support us you can do so, by either becoming a Trail member or making a donation. Your help and support are greatly needed and very much appreciated!

Trail Documents

Our vision

The St. Margaret’s Bay Area Rails to Trails Association (SMBARTA) manages and maintains the 32.5km for the benefit of residents and visitors.

On our Trail, courtesy counts! Our rules are designed to ensure an enjoyable experience for our users. Please adhere to the 20 km/h speed limit, cyclists please ring your bell as you approach walkers, and ATVers please slow down. Poop-bags are provided at some of the Trail access points, please clean-up after your pets and take it home. We do not have garbage cans. See also: Trail By-Laws
