Maitland River Bridge of a Promise – We will visit the westerly abutment of the Maitland River Bridge on the G2G trail on the former CPR rail bed. Gazing east, relive the feeling of longing for a complete connection to your community on “the other side”. A bridge in the truest definition of community building that we wish for to this day!
Balls Bridge – built in 1885 to span the Maitland River during colonial settlement of the day and reconditioned in 2007 is a one of a kind working example of its design in North America.
Difficulty: Level 2, moderate pace, 2.5 hour bike ride
