Tomifobia Nature Trail

The Tomifobia Nature Trail (French: Sentier Nature Tomifobia) is a 19 km rail trail in the Eastern Townships region of Quebec. It follows the old route of a Canadian Pacific railway from Ayer's Cliff to Stanstead. In between, it passes through parts of Stanstead-Est, Stanstead Township, and Ogden.
The trail is made of a gravel surface, and is open for cyclists, hikers, and cross-country skiers. It closes for maintenance between mid-March and mid-May every two years. The trail is maintained by the Memphremagog Regional County Municipality with funds from adhering municipalities.
The trail was completely converted for touristic purposes after the removal of the railway tracks in 1992, however parts of it were already informally used by hikers for a decade prior to opening. The last Quebec Central revenue freight train to use the line was on December 5, 1988(the last Canadian Pacific train, a detour freight, ran on November 29, 1988).
