I love going for walks here no matter the season! In winter they provide bird seed so you can feed chickadees and sometimes other birds right out of your hand over even off your head! I've always seen owls and many deer here. As a photographer it is a great spot not too far from the city to have that great escape from the busy city life. It's very peaceful and there are multiple trails you can walk which is fun! Also a great place for a photoshoot with friends :)

Great trail systems, really nice green space in L&A with wild animals, and birds. Trek through grasslands, marsh areas, around the bay through treed areas and coniferous forest. Easy trail in most sections - when you move off the gravelled path areas into the conifers, the terrain changes to moderate in some areas with short, steep inclines/declines. There are no facilities at this location.

This is a great location for nature hikes. Since their welcome Centre is currently closed due to COVID, it might be a good idea to print their brochure and map off their website as there are several trails of different lengths and themes. The trails and boardwalks seem well maintained although their markings and directions could be better for first timers. There are several benches and picnic tables through the site. Highly recommended and free too!!!!

We discovered this area while in town geocaching. There are several geocaches along the walkway. The walk along the river and the falls is beautiful. We saw some native wildlife including a snake, ducks and birds.

There is a kilometer trail to walk through Ducks Unlimited wetlands, then you enter a woodlands area before reaching the dunes and the beach. There is a washroom at the trailhead and another at the end, before the beach. There are some pretty big waves, and the sandy beach has many pebbles of various sizes that show the development of the beach, and the wearing down of rocks. Stay on the beach, do not climb the dunes! This is an ecological preserve that allows beach use, so please respect the area - also, there's poison ivy on the dunes, so karma might get you! Bring everything you need with you - there is nowhere to purchase water or food once you reach the destination - and take cash to pay entry.
