On this morning hike, we’ll search for signs of spring in the open fields, woodland, and along the Thames River. There’s so much beauty in this Park given the various habitats and inhabitants. Recommended items to bring are binoculars, hiking boots, trekking poles, and a camera. For those wanting to gain some familiarity with the Park and its inhabitants, feel free to view a YouTube video I shot there (the first two-thirds is from Komoka) and posted on Hiking With Kathleen: https://youtu.be/FTs7i8GquRk Please note, this is a Provincial Park. Payment for parking is required when using the parking lot. Hourly rates are available ($5.25/2 hours or $14.50 full day). For those with an annual Provincial Parks pass, you may just leave it on your dashboard. They cost $118/year and are also available for loan through the London Public Library. Consider driving together to share the cost. Directions: From Oxford Street West, turn left onto Gideon Drive (west of Westdel Bourne). 503 Gideon Dr., London, ON N6K 4N8. Meet in the parking lot.
