    This park is one of my favourite walking loops! Lots of wildlife and not too big. Well maintained trail and mix of open marsh and wooded pathway.

    It’s a great little park where you can always see some animals and enjoy a few minutes of nature. The walk around the water is only about 15 min. so it’s perfect for a quick hike and there are many adjoining paths from which you can enter and exit from potentially making your route longer or shorter depending on your mood. Close to the middle there is also a raised public observation area for you to enjoy a panoramic view of the cute ducks. πŸ¦†

    Great place. Short walk only just over 1 km. Ducks in the pond. Path is tree covered for 1/4 of it.

    Nice park, it is so calming there and flowing water sound is relaxing, also the friendly ducks are there and they are very friendly and think that we brought them food.

    Beautiful spot to clear your head, walk your dog, meditate, or reconnect with nature. Lots of benches and seating all around in the shade and in the Sun it's great for hanging out all day. Plenty of ducks in the pond and walking trails all the way round the water. However there are no bathrooms anywhere nearby.

    A nice lil path and park, dog friendly but watch out for the Eagles! Great to skate on in winter. Lots of wildlife to see.

    Small-Medium gravel, good for riding, a few turns that could put you in the water if you are going too fast, but beautiful little trail. Love the wildlife.

    A leisure walk around the marsh can always be earned no matter how the weather conditions arise. I preferred coming here for a walk in the evening so that the sunset can be ready to amaze visitors. The trail also comes in with some history. Check it out on the bulletin boards at the entrance, where a look out platform couldn’t be missed.

    Nice walking trails and viewpoint platform at the pond.

    Just a nice walk, finding parking is easy but it is on a busy street. Watch traffic, be smart when driving. Enjoy the walk, and you might just see some deer on your walk. However... When in doubt you will see some ducks.

    Great little walk that is safe to do on your own. Groomed trail. Have to go on the street a little which is only negative.

  • 5/5 Nancy S. 11 months ago on Google
    A gem in a busy city. Beavers, river otter, deer, grey heron, red wing blackbirds, Canada geese, various duck species etc etc. A dog walkers slice of heaven.

    Such a relaxing g spot to go for a walk or sit on the bench. The ducks like to follow you around, I. Case you drop them a snack I suspect

    Great place to have some quite time with nature. You can take a walk around the marsh and end the walk with some ducks swimming nearby.

    It is a beautiful place for a short hike. The marsh and wood trails are well kept. We saw a deer, lots of squirrels and birds.
