Incredible tall pine trees line the banks of both sides of the river. The entire length of the Wallace River Bridge has been decked and railed. The work was completely done by volunteers, most from the Route 6 Snowmobile Club, although the Cumberland Trails association has been co-ordinating TCT efforts in this area. Except for the obvious care that should be taken when walking on the bridge itself, this is a quite safe walk. There are no stores or services in Wallace Station, but there are a number of amenities in nearby Wallace.
Cell phones work very well along the entire distance.
When I visited in May, the Wallace Museum told me that they were building a footpath to connect to the Trans Canada Trail near the bridge. This might make a more interesting approach for hikers rather than the wider multi-use route. St. Margs Bay Rails to Trails Call 466-4421 for more information.
