John Lawson Park and Trail follows the Thames River in Ingersoll and is in a mixed wood, which provides hikers with the joy of seeing a variety of vegetation and the opportunity to do some bird watching. There is one steeper hill, but generally the terrain is easy-going. The trail is wide and well-maintained, and there are many internal loops. There can be wet spots in the spring or if there has been a lot of rain. It is a great hiking area. Please remember when walking your dog to have it on a leash and to clean up after it.
We would also direct you to read our DISCLAIMER and our TRAIL USERS CODE.
