Ontario’s second oldest park will become a winter wonderland with trails past 200 year old tree

Rondeau Provincial Park is Ontario’s second oldest park and luckily for us, it is open year round. It’s home to a ton of trails that are as wonderful in the winter as they are in the summer. As for you nature enthusiasts, you’ll love knowing that while you venture along the trails, you’ll pass through mature Carolinian forest and right past 200-year-old trees.

This escape from reality can only be found along Lake Erie, surrounded by rare, centuries-old trees that are simply begging to be explored.

It’s about three hours west of Toronto and according to Ontario Parks, it is perfect for hiking, biking and rollerblading.

For you bird fans out there, this park is a “world-renowned” bird-watching destination. However, in the warmer months, you may have better luck seeing a few of them in the area so you may have to come back once again.

Enjoy 38.5 km of trails and even explore its mature Carolinian forest, home to 200-year-old trees, and its rare Oak Savanna.

Thanks to the park’s variety of trails, it is the perfect spot for winter adventures such as Cross-country skiing, Snowshoeing and even Ice fishing.

It’s important to note that the trails are ungroomed so tread lightly.

If Ontario’s forests could talk, we’re sure they’d have a lot to share.

It’s time to be one with nature and explore all of Ontario even if it’s nice and cold out there.
