A dense patch of forest tucked beside Waterdown, with narrow dirt paths winding through tall trees and rugged ground. It features a network of trails that you can loop and explore as you like. The paths are rooty and natural, giving the walk a wild feel despite being so close to town. It’s a great spot for a short, shaded wander or a quick escape into nature, with plenty of birds and quiet corners along the way. It gets especially pretty in the fall.
