Discovery
Routes Trails Organization introduces the
'Recreational
Trails in
Ontario's Near North
RESOURCE
GUIDE'.
The
Resource Guide has been designed as a tool for the hospitality
industry to direct visitors to local trails
and trail resources.
Background
Feedback
from the tourism sector alerted Discovery Routes to the fact that insufficient, and in
some cases, non-existent information was available
on the area's significant natural resources;
our trails. The lack of trail information
available to the professionals promoting the region
and the front line personnel greeting visitors
prompted Discovery Routes to embark on a project
that would compile existing information into one
resource.
Who
should have this guide?
Contents
The
guide includes detailed trail information and local
maps (when available) for over 50 trails.
Trail types include ATV, Bicycle, Canoe, Cross-Country Ski, Equestrian, Hike, Snowmobile and
Snowshoe.

A
complete listing of the trails included in the Guide
can be viewed here.
Additionally,
the Guide contains information on local resources
and services available for trail users such as trail
events, equipment rentals, clubs and
organizations.

Contact
information for 75 local clubs and organizations
involved in trails is present throughout the guide
allowing for the user to seek additional information
when required.
Format
The
Resource Guide has been designed for easy
reproduction. The information is contained in
a binder, divided into sections defined by the type
of trail use. Every page is removable so that
they are easy to copy. Each page is also dated
to facilitate easy updates as trails evolve.
A
Tracking Form has been included in each guide to
allow businesses to track trends in trail use.
Additional
Benefits
In
addition to the Guide, Discovery Routes will keep
businesses updated on the region's seasonal trail
events through quarterly notices. The listings
will be in a letter size print-out that is easy to
post.

copies of the 'Discovery
Routes Trails Map 2008/2009'.
Cost
The cost
of the Resource Guide is $65.00 (GST
included). Discovery Routes will make every
attempt to deliver the Resource Guide.
However, if arrangements cannot be made, an
additional $20 will be added for shipping.
