There are some seriously stunning views in here. Feels like you're in Algonquin Park in a few places. Rode my bike through here for years (best to have a mountain or fat bike with good suspension, they aren't kidding about the 'stony' part. Try to find the actual swamp, and paths around it, it never gets old. The variety of canopy, deer everywhere, it's one of the best in the area.
Such a beautiful place to embrace nature and take in all its beauty. Chickadees come right to you, squirrels and chipmunks are very tame. Lots of acreage to cover and beautiful walk through the marshy areas and forestry.
A lot of trails and quite a large area to explore. The maps are a bit confusing and the trails not very well delineated so it's easy to veer off course if you are not paying attention. The trails I've done have all been flat, so not super strenuous. Just a note, bug spray is essential!
Great place to see nature, free, and very easy trails to use and navigate.
It felt old and quiet. Some gravel would help with paddles.
