Bonwill Access (formerly Skycroft Access) – McAndrews Road
Shortly after leaving the Bonwill Access, stop at the Bonwill shelter and sign the Guest Book! Take something if you need or leave something for future travellers. This section of medium level trail leads down to the Cat Trail again for a short distance before turning sharp left into the woods. A mix of easier trail and country road leads on to beautiful Bedford Mills. Be sure to admire the old Mill and the old timbers hidden just below the surface of the lake. Head on out into some rougher terrain again as the Trail heads over McAndrews Road.
