This trail begins at the old Sutton Dam which has been decommissioned. The trail goes through the old reservoir area, following Davis Creek up past a small pond to a lookout point. The old reservoir area has been replanted with various trees, shrubs and grasses. You will pass over a bridge on your way to the lookout point; be careful in the fall, as leaves make this bridge very slippery! The lookout point is up a small hill at the end of the trail and overlooks a wider portion of Davis Creek.
Trail Location
The entrance to this trail is located off of Highway 24 in Simcoe. It is just north of the intersection of Highway 3 and Highway 24 in Simcoe on the west side of the road. There is a large parking lot with signage near the back.
