IB & O Rail Trail| Length: | 14 km, linear | | Rating: | easy | | Duration: | 4:00 to 5:00 hours | | Description: | The entire trail is relatively flat and a fairly easy hike. The northern portion of this trail quite forested and there are numerous rock outcrops. The south portion of the trail travels through numerous features including beautiful lakes and wetlands.
Cautions: Be aware of the other motorized users on this trail. In the northern end of the trail there is a very wet section that becomes particularly wet in the spring or after a heavy rain.
Directions: There are two starting points for this trail. The trailhead for the entire trail is at the intersection of County Road 4 (Essonville Line) and Farr Road (formally Otter Lake Road). The second trailhead is 5 km down the trail and can be accessed from Highway 118 at Tory Hill. This trailhead gives you the option to hike north towards the original trailhead (5 km) or south towards County Road 503 (8 km).
