Our Trails:

These trails can be divided up into 5 trail loops.  The loops are fully groomed and accessible for Cross-Country Skiing and Snowshoeing during winter. 

Rabbit Run

Rabbit Run features an easy 1 km trail through the forest.  Including a gravel portion, this trail is widely used by seniors and young people looking to enjoy nature.   Access to this loop is directly from The Barn.  This loop will take you 10 minutes.  Difficulty Level: Easy

Bear Paw Path

Bear Paw Path is a 2 km trail meandering through the wilderness.  A portion of the trail is gravel for easy accessibility.  Access this loop directly from The Barn.  This entire loop will take you 15 minutes. Difficulty Level: Moderate

Running Deer Trail

Running Deer Trail can be done as a loop trail or to access Fox Trot and Moose Tracks.  This 3 km loop leads you back into the wilderness where wildlife are frequently seen.  This loop can be muddy and quite rugged.   This loop will take you 30 minutes to complete.  Access this loop through Bear Paw Path.  Difficulty Level: Easy to Moderate

Fox Trot

Fot Trot loop continues into the mossy forest and can be found following Bear Paw Path.  This unique 4 km loop overlooks an intriguing wetland home to five beaver lodges and many streams.  This loop will take you 40 minutes to complete.  Difficulty Level: Moderate.

Moose Tracks

Moose Tracks is a rugged one lane trail leading to amazing views of Little Whitefish Lake and numerous wetlands.  The trail leads you deeper into the forest, over streams and scours the side of a beautiful waterfall.  Home to a family of minks, deer and moose, this trail is a "rugged use only" trail.  Challenge your skills by exploring this 2 km trail.  This loop will take you 25 minutes to complete.  Difficulty Level: Very Difficult.

This project will ultimately create a four-season multi-use trail system that will link seven of the province's premiere parks, as well as area attractions, services, amenities and other trail networks such as the Trans Canada Trail. Trail uses include hiking/walking, cycling, cross-country skiing, snowmobiling, horseback riding, dog sledding, ATV's and trail bikes. Please note that all trail uses may not be permitted on all sections of the trail. Contact Park-to-Park Trail for further information.

The Park-to-Park Trail route traverses a region rich in natural and cultural heritage. Highlights include visible evidence of the logging and railway history of the area. Early settlement villages and colonization roads are features common along the trail. Physically, the trail passes numerous lakes, rivers and streams, as well as extensive areas of forest, field and wetland habitat. A celebrated feature of the Park-to-Park Trail is the Precambrian geology of the Canadian Shield. The trail cuts laterally across the southern extent of the Shield exposing the glacially scarred granite bedrock.

Residents and visitor can park off of Black Lake Road, near the Tim Hortons/Petro Canada rest stop at Hwy 400 & Exit 214.
