--0000000000005e0f5205a433af6a Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" The situation re the Rail Trail is interesting. As stated on the County of Kings web site, "... all Municipally owned parks, playgrounds, beaches and trails in the Municipality of the County of Kings shall remain closed with the exception of the Harvest Moon Trail." and "The Harvest Moon Trail runs through 4 municipalities in the Kings Region: The Municipality of the County of Kings and the Towns of Wolfville, Kentville, and Berwick. Trail users are encouraged to check the status of the trail with their local municipality before accessing the Harvest Moon Trail." https://www.countyofkings.ca/upload/All_Uploads/Information/news/03-23%20Municipal%20Trails.pdf A quick look at the Town of Kentville web site appears to show every trail closed, as Dave states. However, in Wolfville the Rail Trail was re-opened when the town learned it was allowed. "Update on Parks and Trail Closures The Town has received confirmation that municipalities can make decisions related to the closure of their trail systems. In light of this, we have made the decision to re-open the Harvest Moon Trail to the public." https://www.wolfville.ca/re-opening-of-harvest-moon-trail.html The Rail Trail is open in Berwick also. "Currently, the Apple Capital Heritage section of the Harvest Moon trail remains open but users are reminded to practice social distancing of 2M (6 ft)." http://www.berwick.ca/covid19 So the Rail Trail is open in Wolfville, Berwick and in Kings County outside of Kentville. Of course, following the province-wide policy, one is supposed to be able to walk to the trail from home. But that includes many residents of Kings County given the location of the railroad.
