ATVs and dirt bikes not allowed on Millennium Trail during winter months

January 24, 2025

January 24, 2025

Millennium Trail users are reminded that all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) and dirt bikes are not permitted on the trail in winter months once grooming operations have started.

Grooming is now underway. Restrictions will remain in place until the snow has melted and the trail conditions are stable enough for ATV use. During this time, motorized vehicle use of the Millennium Trail is restricted to snowmobiles, farm tractors and vehicles of animal husbandry.

Snowmobilers are reminded to limit their speed to 20 kilometres per hour within any town, village or hamlet, 10 kilometres per hour within designated significant wetlands, and 50 kilometres per hour elsewhere.

All trail users are reminded that the Millennium Trail is a mixed-use trail; please be mindful of other users. The trail provides an opportunity for the public to enjoy time outdoors and exercise through winter activities such as snowmobiling, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, fat tire biking and walking.

The trail is not maintained for pedestrian use in the winter, and icy conditions exist on some sections of the trail. Trail users are encouraged to review the interactive trail guide prior to arriving. Please note that parking lots and access points are not plowed.

The municipality also reminds users that the Millennium Trail between Cleminson Street and Wellington on the Lake is closed to all users until further notice. The closure is required so that emergency services (fire, police, and paramedics) can use the trail to access Wellington on the Lake during the Wellington Main Street closure.

Visit the PEC Trails Committee website for more information about the Millennium Trail and permitted uses, or contact the County of Prince Edward at 613.476.2148 extension 1023, 613.962.9108 extension 1023, or info@pecounty.on.ca.
