    New Schmidt Woods trail now open in Wilmot

    Wilmot residents now have a new three-kilometre trail to walk, hike and cycle on - and with winter edging closer, it will soon be open to snowmobilers, too.

    The Schmidt Woods trail opened Oct. 5, and runs from the northwest corner of the Wilmot Recreation Complex (at the Nafziger Road entrance) to the east end of the property, eventually connecting paved bike lanes at Gingerich Road.

    About two kilometres of the trail has a compacted stone dust multi-purpose surface. The remaining kilometre is a natural ground hiking trail, which leads through the forest surrounding the Rec Complex.

    The lands for the trails were donated to Wilmot Township by the Schmidt Estate as a tribute to the memory of Harold and Enid Schmidt's contributions to both Baden and the township.

    The $257,000 construction, funded in part through the CIP 150 grant program, ended up costing less than anticipated.

    A full trail map can be found on the township's website, www.wilmot.ca.
