Inverness Shean Trail (part of Celtic Shores Coastal Trail)
The Inverness Shean Trail section of the Celtic Shores Coastal Trail begins at Blackstone. About 4.5km (2.8mi) to Kenloch you will experience unsurfaced, but easily rideable coal dust covered treadway. Shortly after crossing the Strathlorne Scotsville Road at Kenloch, you will find a rest area along the shores of Lake Ainslie.
Furthering along and after crossing the Deepdale Road, you will come to the Deepdale Trestle. This is the last of 26 bridges, but is definitely the “grand daddy” of them all, measuring at over 300 feet long and almost 100 feet high. A local interpretive panel displays pictures of the former wooden and present steel structure which carried trains for almost a century.
