ニューブランズウィックのおすすめライド

フレデリクトン鉄道橋はかつて鉄道橋でしたが、今日では歩行者やサイクリストがセントジョン川を渡るためにのみ使用されています。2008年に、フレデリクトン・トレイル・システムの創設者の一人にちなんでビル・ソープ・ウォーキング・ブリッジと改名され、毎年約60万人のバイカーやハイカーが利用しています。

このパビリオンには、Trans Canada Trailに関する多くの情報、地図、そしてパビリオンの内外の壁4面に記念碑があります。パビリオンには屋根がないため、雨や強い日差しからの避難場所としてはあまり適していませんが、学ぶには絶好の機会です。

Where Maple Avenue and Stewart Avenue meet, sits the humble trailhead of the Sussex Nature Walkway. There is no official parking area, but it's close to downtown, so there's plenty of street parking and nearby lots. The city has installed a sign at the trailhead with a map of the trail so that you won't miss it.

A long, mostly level multi-use route that traces the quiet corridor of the Nashwaak River on Fredericton’s north side. The compacted-gravel surface makes it easy to walk, run, or cycle, and the trail moves between shaded woodland, open stretches, and short riverside clearings. Views of the Nashwaak appear steadily along the way, especially near bridge crossings and wider bends in the river. The trail takes its name from the Nashwaak River itself, derived from the Wolastoqey (Maliseet) word Nekawäk—often interpreted as “slow current” or “still water,” a fitting description of the calm, steady flow that defines this part of the valley.

A riverfront green space along the Saint John River, offering open views across the water toward downtown Fredericton. The park features a wide, level pathway suitable for walking, running, and cycling, with plenty of lawn area and benches along the shoreline.

A small lakeside lookout offering a clear view across McKeever Lake from the forested edge. The approach is mostly level, following short local paths that open onto a gap in the trees with an unobstructed line of sight over the water. The lake is bordered by red maple, white birch, and pockets of spruce, and the reflection of the tree line is especially noticeable on calm days. It’s a simple, quiet waypoint that works well as a turnaround spot or mid-route pause for walkers and runners exploring the nearby neighbourhood trails.

The Saunders Brook Trail is an 8-kilometer, well-maintained path featuring a crushed rock surface. The trail follows the course of Saunders Creek and offers several convenient benches for resting along the way.

Hillside Trailhead is only a gate, a sign, and a gravel pullout. Parking is not allowed here, but there is a dirt lot three meters south on Grove Avenue.
