Forest Trail

Owned by the Municipality of Lambton Shores, the formal 2.8 km (one way) paved Forest Walkway Trail leads south to the Esli Dodge Conservation Area. The Grand Trunk Trail along the old railway track is a 4 km return trip over flat lands. A 1 km Lagoon Loop is available at the end of the Grand Trunk Trail.

A 2.8 km paved walking, running, rollerblading and cycling trail links the Rotary Civic Square with the Elsi Dodge Conservation Area. The trail offers a great opportunity for bird watching while touring through local wetlands and around Lake Toria.
