Enjoy this 6.4-km loop trail located on the westward edge of North Grenville, 15 minutes outside of Kemptville. Generally considered an easy route, it takes an average of just over an hour to complete. This trail is great for cross-country skiing, hiking, and mountain biking, and it's unlikely you'll encounter many other people while exploring. The trail is open year-round and is beautiful to visit anytime. Dogs are welcome and may be off-leash in some areas.
Take the short detour off the main trail to walk up to Orchid Point. This lookout is the perfect spot for picnic lunch with several benches and a dining table under the canopy of a grove of mature trees.
You don’t want to miss the boardwalk. The panoramic view is one of the best in the area. Spot the beaver lodge from the platform and look for the turtles and waterfowl.
To find the entrance, consult the trail map and look for a trail branching off marked by three large boulders.
