Beginning in 1879, Prince Edward County Railway served 10 stops from Picton to Trenton. The County purchased the original PECR line in 1997 and began transforming it into a multi-purpose trail. The Millennium Trail is a 46-km multi-use trail perfect for hiking, biking or even horseback riding.

NATURE POETRY
Cut thistles in May,
They grow in a day.
Cut them in June,
That is too soon.
Cut in July,
Then they will die. – Proverb

I rode the Millennium Trail last July from Brighton to Pictor. It’s a scenic and fairly flat ride. It passes a number of wetlands and Lake Ontario embayments and I saw quite a variety of birds along the way. The boardwalk trail in Presqu’ile Provincial Park was also a good spot for birds.
Enjoy your blog and especially your photographs.
