Land OwnerHalifax Regional Muncipality
An alternate and slightly longer and gnarlier connector to the Attic from I/O trail.
Good in either direction, but probably a touch harder if ridden counter-clockwise from I.O. to the Attic owing to a step-up on a narrow ridge.
Chimney was originally part of a closed loop that was part of the original Attic trail. This led to the navigationally-confusing situation of a four-way corner in which all trails were 'The Attic' ;-). Giving one segment it's own name, Chimney, hopefully reduces this confusion for those new to the area.
Access Info
From I/O trail (top of Chimney) and the Attic trail (bottom).
