Description
We will begin our hike at km19.1 on the 12th Sideroad in the Beaver Valley section. Hiking south through a deciduous woodlot, we arrive at a small piece of history. The Old Mail Road was a pioneer route into this area and was in use from the 1830's until the 1850's. Small parts of it still exist including a small section in this woodlot. The trail continues south to reach Grey Rd 19 and then travels through a BTC property to reach Grey Rd 2. Here, we will retrace our steps back to the cars. Bring water and lunch. Map 25 Edition 30
