Good trails, nicely marked. Not a lot of traffic for a Sunday afternoon. Lovely views for photos and benches to relax. Beware of tics! We saw several which managed to get on our clothing.

A quiet trail that intersects the Humber River. The entrance to the trail from Kirby rd has no parking. Huntington rd is not very busy at this location making it easy enough to park on the shoulder. The river and bridge are very close to the entrance. The bridge has a notice that it's a danger to use and is fenced off making most of the trail inaccessible, unless you choose to cross the bridge. User takes the risk. The trail seems like a good place to hike or bird watch. I didn't make it too far with my 2 children. Ill visit again in spring

Very nice and chill winter hike. Wear proper boots as the snow is deep in parts. The trail is not a loop. Easy trail 30min walk. Bridge is at the beginning of the trail over passing a river. Parked by the street. Didn’t see anyone on the trail so I let Theo run off leash which he enjoyed with the deep snow. I wish there was a map at the beginning of the trail with some info about the trail. It’s always nice to see one of those. otherwise highly recommend it for an easy mid day hike after work to free your mind.

I thought it would be bigger. It's a trail that goes from Huntington Rd and Kirby Rd to a subdivision. From Huntington Rd the trail starts off unpaved for a short stretch through bush and then it is paved. There is forest on either side of the trail however trees don't canopy the trail so you're in the sun if it's the middle of the day. It's about a 20 min walk. I didn't see any trails through the forest, so you just stay on the paved trail. I drove there from pretty far, but it's definitely not a destination, I would say it's for locals.

Large forest with a variety of habitats in it. Deer and other wildlife present. Some areas are a bit "shady" and might have some people hanging around but few and far between do I actually encounter that. The park recently had some work done on it and the trails are nice (though getting overgrown). Paths are gravel, and steep hills had zigzag paths added to them for easier walking. Lots of plants, birds, fungi, and other wildlife to observe. Bring some pretty decent strength mosquito repellent if you intend on going off trail into the grasses and such. Nice play to take a walk or hang out with friends and family.
