Trans Canada Trail follows along part of Haslam Creek and passes several lakes along the way (Timberland Lake, Cyrstal Lake and McKay Lake) ending at the Nanaimo River. The final bridge crossing at Nanaimo River that will connect the Trans Canada Trail is still in development. In the interim (depending on which way you are coming, north or south) the Trans Canada Trail north of the Nanimo River can be accessed on the Nanaimo River Road and south of the Nanimo River at the end of either Spruston Road (and McKay Lake) or Timberlands Road via Highway #1. |
