Description

This 204 acre property features majestic, mature sugar maple trees, a meandering cold water stream, and small pockets of wetlands. This lush Niagara Escarpment forest is home to a variety of rare and at-risk species. The sounds of hairy and pileated woodpeckers echo through the trees. The skies above are home to red-shouldered hawks. We will creatively combine Mingay, Maple Leaf and Trout trails to complete a loop-de-loop. Bring water and a snack.
