The Elora Cataract Trailway is owned by the Grand River and Credit Valley Conservation Authorities and is managed by them in cooperation with the Elora Cataract Trailway Association. The 47 kilometre (29 mile) trail links the Grand and Credit watersheds and follows the old Canadian Pacific railroad bed.

The Elora Cataract Trailway runs through rolling countryside just east of Elora, to the historic community of Fergus, and past Belwood Lake to reach the Forks of Credit Provincial Park at Cataract. In Fergus, signs direct trail users through town streets for approximately two kilometres (1.2 miles). The trail passes through the Belwood Lake Conservation Area and is surfaced with stone dust along the entire length.
