Save the Pass Lake Trestle!

Donation protected

Imagine travelling along the shores of pristine Lake Superior....... Vista after vista of awe inspiring views that have drawn visitors from around the world to sit on the shores of this inland sea and dream.
Canadian National Railway has abandoned their coastal rail line from Nipigon to Thunder Bay. The dream is to convert this 111km section of rail line in a recreational trail but we need your help. The gem is the Pass Lake Trestle. It is an impressive 130 feet high and 2,280 feet long.  The view of the Sleeping Giant and Lake Superior from the top is unprecedented.  We are raising funds to install railings and a proper deck on this amazing trestle so people can experience the view for themselves. The engineering has been completed, other funding sources are being secured but we need some help from people like you who love trails, nature and inspiring views.......
We have plans to upgrade the railbed surface to accommodate trail users like cyclists, hikers, summer motorized use and snowmobiles in the winter months. As a full multiuse trail, we will be able to keep the trail in the public domain for future generations to enjoy.
The rail line doesn't stop at Nipigon but then turns north towards Greenstone. There has been some interest in discussing this as an option but conversations need to occur.
Please support this legacy project as we create an amazing trail alongside Lake Superior - the great inland sea.
