Meet at LLPL at 7.30am and car pool to south end of Barrie or meet Paul on Walnut Crescent (in the south end of Barrie) – at the trail entrance to start the walk at 8:00am. We’ll be walking along partially wooded lowland to upper wooded forests and then down into the lower woods where we walk alongside the striking Hewitt Creek as it finalizes it’s run into Lake Simcoe. Each way takes about an hour or so.
We’ll be looking for Indigo Buntings, Red Tail Hawks, Coopers Hawk, Pine Warblers, Cedar Waxwings, Red Breasted, Pileated Woodpeckers, Downeys, Hairys, and many different types of Sparrows, Green Herons, Blue Herons, Swifts, Kingfishers and waterfowl along the lake shore line.
Note: There are no washrooms along the trail and at a minimum it takes two full hours there and back. Easy to moderate walking with a couple of steep hills. Snack and water.
