Our trail system looks a bit different![]()
As you remember, later last winter most of the Violette Settlement Trails were closed due to timber harvesting activity. After discussions with the landowners in the area, we have re-routed and constructed new trail segments. However, we are unable to connect to the Violette Settlement Trailhead, so these trails can only be accessed from the Red Barn Trailhead. Our new map is below.![]()
![]()
In short, Mickey's Way (#9) and Piste Acadienne (#10) have stayed the same. The Violette Settlement trail (formerly #8) is out and we have re-routed to create the FK Town Trail (#11) and the Birch Loop (#12).![]()

We are in the process of getting the trail numbers and the location signs put out, so print and bring a map with you if you go out now. We'll keep you updated on progress.
