We are so glad you are here!
We have gathered up some information and resources for you as you connect with nature.

Guidelines for Footpath & Trail Use:
- If the parking area is at capacity, please come back at another time or visit another trail.
- Please keep at least a six foot distance between you and others that you don’t live with.
- Wear a mask as an extra pre-caution (Bonus – it will keep your face warm!)
- Follow guidelines to keep you and the community safe, such as staying home if you are sick, staying close to home, and more.
- Stay on the trail – the plants on the forest floor matter! Only step off the trail to allow others to pass.
- Don’t allow your dog to make contact with others. The Nature Reserves are not off leash dog parks – please keep them on a leash. This really matters. Please respect other trail users.
- No camping, fires, motorized vehicles, foraging, mountain bikes. More info here.
Our facilities remain closed but the footpaths and trails are open.
