Malton Greenway Trail

Malton Greenway follows the Mimico Creek in the Malton area.  This trail follows a narrow greenzone through the centre of a built up residential and commercial area.  I think the idea of the trail is great and it is promoted...but the love stops there.  Lots of litter along the way even though there are lots of garbage bins along the length of the path.   The overhanding branches and waterside grasses of the creek are littered with tangled remains of bags and other debris.  The last entry on the "greenway cleanup site" is Aug 2009....which says it all.

Most of the trail is a paved bike path. There are the rare narrow dirt trails to get closs to the creek. 

South of Derry Road, into Wildwood Park, is a wide mown grass trail.  This is where Wildwood Park Trail begins and his section of the trail is much more pleasant. 



The trail runs mainly north south along the creek and the map provided is quite good
