The Unexpected in Trail, BC


I have to admit that Trail, BC was a town I had only passed through.  However, when my husband had to have hip surgery in the hospital in Trail, I had several days to explore the town, and I found the unexpected.

I didn’t expect such a fine B&B as the River’s Edge that offered a wonderful view and a superb breakfast at such reasonable rates.

I didn’t expect such a good restaurant as The Colander where I ate the best spaghetti and meatballs that I have ever tasted.

Trails to follow in Trail, BC

I didn’t expect a beautiful walking trail that allows visitors to photograph the river with it’s magnificent arched bridge.

I didn’t expect the painted murals and the quaint gift and coffee shops.  I didn’t expect to find the artisans’ shop where I could not resist buying some treasures.

I left this town thinking that I had misjudged Trail as an industrial town with not much to offer.  Instead, I left wanting to return to explore it again and I am sure I will!
