Trailheads can be found in Schumacher and South Porcupine. Starting from Schumacher, follow First Avenue as far west as possible and then enter the trail system. From the South Porcupine end, park your vehicle on the Back Road about 200 metres from the Bruce Avenue intersection just down from the Spruce Hill Lodge. This is a walking/bicycle trail that connects both of the above communities. From the east end it passes through a mixed forest emerging close to Highway 101 which it parallels for about 500 metres. The trail then enters an area shared with the Porcupine Ski Runners.
The trail wanders through a mixture of forest ranging from poplar to white spruce to black spruce and in the higher elevations, jack pine. The trail is relatively flat in the east section with some hilly sections in the west Ski Runners' section. The trail ends in Schumacher on First Avenue after leaving the Porcupine Ski Runners' property. You can continue on to Timmins using sidewalks through Schumacher and along the highway to Timmins.
