PETER’S WOODS PROVINCIAL NATURE RESERVE TRAILS
Peter’s Woods is on the sandy, north-facing slope of the Oak Ridges Moraine. Steep-sided valleys have been cut into this northern slope by surface runoff, springs and the headwater streams of Mill Creek. Deciduous forests of sugar maple beech, red oak and deciduous-evergreen forest containing hemlock and white pine dominate the slopes and well-drained uplands. Poorly drained wetlands support forests of white cedar, with local concentrations of red ash, white birch and other trees.
