Preston & Area Trails Association

Preston and Area Trails Association Members on the North Preston Waterline Trail

The Association has recently taken over management of the North Preston Waterline trail that runs along the water line to North Preston. The 3 km Waterline Trail is a crusher dust surface that will evntually connect to the community of North Preston

Another goal of the Preston & Area Trail Association is to create a 7 km trail around Lake Eagle and other areas within the community to create wellness and tourism and to allow access to significant land marks and links to the surrounding communities.

A concept plan has been prepared by Consultant Lesley Griffiths and Gordon Ratcliffe of Gordon Ratcliffe & Associates. Community consultations regarding the rail concept plan were conducted in the fall of 2007 and winter of 2008. A draft concept plan was presented to the community at a public meeting at the East Preston Recreation Centre on April 17, 2008 . See side links.
