From Wikipedia: The Boundary Trail Railway Company is a Canadian short line railway company operating in southern Manitoba. In 2009, the railway purchased 37 kilometres (23 mi) of operational railway linking Morden, Manitoba to the Binney Siding, as well as 89 kilometres (55 mi) of abandoned railway from Binney Siding to the Pembina Valley, and on to Holmfield. Since March 2016, it has also operated with trackage rights on Canadian Pacific Railway's La Riviere sub between Morden and Rosenfeld.

Plan your hike

Practical notes

Maps + permits: long-distance trails like this often require permits for through-hiking, backcountry camping, or specific sections (especially in National Parks). Check with the maintaining organisation listed above and the relevant land manager before booking travel.

Water + supplies: water sources vary seasonally on most U.S. trails. Carry a filter and consult current trail-condition reports — through-hiker journals (PCT-L, AT Reddit, etc.) and the maintaining organisation publish regular updates.

When to go: hiking seasons vary widely with elevation, latitude, and snowpack. Through-hikers traditionally start the AT in March-April (Springer northbound) and the PCT in late April (Campo northbound). High-elevation western trails (CDT, JMT, Wonderland) generally aren't passable until July.

If you've hiked Boundary Trail and have current notes (water sources, trail closures, permit changes), tell us at /contact — we update pages as we learn.
