May and Trilliums go together. Time to explore this beautiful little area known for its variety and abundance of trilliums.
It is not a long trail, reasonably level, hard packed (unless we have had lots of rain) We will do 2 rounds – once in each direction as it is a loop trail, and you never know what you miss going just once around. No washrooms or other facilities.
From the Parks website -The soils here are predominantly silty and well drained. The nature reserve is near the northern limit of the Carolinian forest region and supports a mature forest of sugar maple, white ash, black cherry, bitternut hickory, beech and butternut. Naturalists will be interested in the unusual forms of white trillium found here. Colour aberrations include green pigmentation in the petals that range from a pin strip to a wide band along the axis of the petal. The one kilometre trail is accessible to the physically challenged.
Directions: South of Woodstock in Oxford Township, 4 km southwest of the Village of Sweaburg along County Road 12.
