Wait, What Trails Are Closed?

The Bear River Canal has been used since the 1940s by Meadow Vista residents  for walking, running, biking, and horseback riding. It runs from Crother Road below the Waldorf school to Meadow Gate Road and on to Placer Hills Road by the Winchester entrance.

Recently gates have been erected between Meadow Gate and Placer Hills Road that effectively block access to that stretch of trail.

Why Do The Trails Matter?

If you're here, you probably use the trails and know that they're a vital place for exercise, meeting friends, and enjoying our beautiful community. Easy access to trails makes us healthier, increases our home values, and provides safe recreation for all ages.
