Link Pathway becomes part of the Trans Canada Trail

Check out the story on:



The LINK Pathway that will connect Coaldale and Lethbridge, is joining the Trans Canada Trail Network.


The Trans Canada Trail is a series of outdoor trails across the country, offering inclusive and accessible outdoor activities for travelers.


The LINK Pathway was recently approved to join the network, which representatives said opens the doors for “enhanced recreational opportunities, fostering community connection, and promoting active lifestyles for people of all ages and abilities.”


Henry Doeve, Chair of the LINK Pathway Committee said, “We are thrilled to offer residents and visitors an exceptional opportunity to connect with nature, embrace a healthy lifestyle, and explore the diverse landscapes and cultures that make Canada so unique."


Doeve added, “It also opens up so many possibilities for other communities across southern Alberta.”


In Alberta, the current trail network crosses the province to the north of Edmonton, before working its way south to Highway 3 in British Columbia. Extensions to the trail have begun in recent years to include areas across Southern Saskatchewan and Alberta.


The LINK Pathway is currently undergoing phase 1 of its construction, with heavy machinery working from Coaldale to Highway 512.


Phase one of the walking and cycling trail includes a 3.5 kilometer section from the St. Mary River Irrigation District (SMRID) drainage canal across from 30 Street in Coaldale, to an area just before Highway 512 with a turnaround section before the highway.
