Placentia Hiking Trail

Proponent: Placentia Chamber of Commerce

Summary of Environmental Assessment Process

Project Description:

The proponent proposes to develop a continuous 24-kilometre hiking trail network within the Town of Placentia that would link the region’s historical and natural assets. The network would extend from Argentia to Point Verde, incorporating existing trails and dirt roads but would also require areas of new construction. Proposed activities include vegetation clearing, ditching, resurfacing with aggregate, and installation of culverts, boardwalks, footbridges and staircases.
