The Toonerville Trail is a multi-use trail built on the railroad bed of the former Toonerville Trolley.

Most of the trail is a ten-foot-wide paved path closed to motor vehicles, except for short stretches on low-volume roads. It is used for walking, biking, running, pushing baby strollers, dog walking, and rollerblading. Benches interspersed along the trail afford views of the river, waterfalls, and wildlife. Parts of the path are wheelchair accessible. It is also used for snowshoeing and cross-country skiing when snow conditions allow.
