Index of Subjects --Apple-Mail-234--180036532 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed; delsp=yes Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit The trail is a project of the Avonport Peninsula Watershed Preservation Society. While Google StreetView has not been around the Avondale Peninsula yet, you can easily find the trail be looking at this view from Google Maps. http://tinyurl.com/7tu8jtx There are trails long the road to Avondale to indicate the community trail. The trail starts at the small parking lot that is immediately behind the Avondale Community Centre. If you look at where the Avondale Crossing Road branches north from Avondale Road, the community centre is the small building on the east side of the Avondale Crossing Road, 200 metres north of the fork. The path runs northeast along the top of the ravine (clearly visible) and after crossing a small brook, makes a loop. Part of the trail runs along the edge of a large open field. If you continue about 100 metres past the community centre, on the same side of the road is the now-open Avondale Sky winery. They made the news last year when the moved an old church from Walton up the river by barge, to use as their store. Definitily a must see! I would also recommend the Avon River Heritage Museum near the wharf at the end of Avondale Road. The view from there is remarkable.
