I have randomly picked some of the Local Niagara Cachers names that I would like to tribute to on this Friendship Trail. If you want to know any history about the Niagara Region, just ask Rockharder.
Here is the history lesson from Rockharder himself about this trail.. Thanks Rockharder!!!
This trail used to be part of the TH&B...the Toronto, Hamilton and Buffalo railway which ran from 1892 til 1987 and has a storied history, which I won't get into...but it is an iconic Canadian piece of history being referenced in Daniel Lanois' song "Under a Stormy Sky" (from the 1989 album Acadie),
"I hear the T.H.& B. the diesel turning, calling you and me to the city of steel, smokestack - spinning wheel come with me Bebette, oui under the stormy sky"
The Friendship Trail extends 16 kms across the Town of Fort Erie, running parallel to the north shore of Lake Erie. Beginning at the Port Colborne border in the west, this relaxing and picturesque trail takes visitors through lush farmland, quaint villages, pristine watersheds, and quiet residential areas as it leads to historic Old Fort Erie, Lake Erie and the Niagara River Recreation Trail.
Much of the trail is located upon an abandoned rail line, meaning it is relatively level and smooth - an easy ride for children and adults alike. The trail is used by walkers, hikers, cyclists and rollerbladers in the summer, and hikers and cross-country skiers in the winter. Of course, the trail is also wheelchair accessible.
