This trail follows the Credit River Valley from access point at Burnamthorpe Road at Walnut Grvoe Rd. and traverses through to the Junction of MIssissauga and the South Millway.

The beautiful trees, quiet river and the sounds of birds can be heard throughout this pleasant valley trip. This is one of many trails in and around Mississauga that allow for the use of bicylces on and off roads, through natural and urban settings.
