Wetland Trail

Starting from beside the gatehouse or from the parking area, the Wetland trail lets you explore our unique, human-restored wetland ecosystem. With the old public swimming pool removed, we have created a home for a number of floral and faunal species common to a typical Ontario wetland that you can see from shore or boardwalk. This easy trail is great for all ages and there are a number of other footpaths in the area to explore.

At Terra Cotta, we have created a network of interconnected hiking trails, footpaths and old roadways that will take you to different parts of the conservation area where you can experience a mosaic of natural and cultural settings. Many of the trails are named for individuals or families that have influenced this area of escarpment land. Some trails are complete loops and some are linear, with links to others. Use the trail descriptions and map to decide the best route and always plan ahead. Information provided by the Credit Valley Conservation Area.
