Project Red Hill Valley Trail
The Red Hill Valley Trail runs from Confederation Park to Albion Falls, a total distance of about 12km. The trail runs along side the Red Hill Creek and has some very picturesque scenery. When the Redhill Parkway was built the creek was literally moved from where it was to it’s current location, which is where it ran thousands of years ago. We will be meeting and entering the trail at the King St. and Lawrence parking lot.

Project James St Stairs
The James St Stairs originate at Southam Park at the top of the escarpment by the Claremont Access. At the bottom of the escarpment they can be accessed from Freeman Pl. which is located at the South end of James St. The meeting location for this location will be the bottom of the stairs.
