Canol Heritage Trail
The Canol Heritage Trail is a trail running from Norman Wells, Northwest Territories, through the Mackenzie Mountains, to the Yukon border. Because of its remoteness, length and river crossings, it is considered one of the most challenging trails in Canada.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www2.macleans.ca/2012/08/10/5-most-challenging-hiking-trails-in-canada/ )〕 It should only be undertaken by experienced, physically fit hikers.
The trail is in the process of becoming a territorial park and consideration is being given to designate it as a portion of the Trans Canada Trail.
== History ==
The trail follows the route of the Canol Road lying within the Northwest Territories where it is no longer maintained beyond the Yukon border. The road was constructed during the Second World War by the United States Army Corps of Engineers to build and service a pipeline bringing oil from Norman Wells to a refinery in Whitehorse, Yukon. Though built at huge expense the pipeline suffered from shoddy workmanship and technical difficulties. It was abandoned after only thirteen months of operation. Some of the steel pipe and other materials were salvaged but sections of pipe, abandoned equipment, pump stations and other buildings remain along the trail.
