Index of Subjects Our Annapolis County website doesn't seem to have specific info about which trails are open, but I did find a statement on Facebook saying that the trail is open. That said, I do know that you can't walk on the part of it that lies within the boundary of the Town of Annapolis Royal. They closed that section of the trail and also the French Basin Trail which runs off of the Harvest Moon Trail after it enters the town limits. The parking areas that access the trails are closed. I think the same applies to the section of trail out toward Clementsport. I'm not sure about the sections of the trail as they pass through some of the other towns such as Bridgetown and those to the east. I am seeing a few people walking on the trail east of Annapolis Royal, but most ATV users. I think you can walk on that once you're outside of town. I believe the trail associated with the Historic Gardens is all closed as probably Delap's Cove Trail as well. bev On 4/26/20, Rick Whitman <dendroica.caerulescens@gmail.com> wrote: > The situation re the Rail Trail is interesting.
