Alven Ferguson Trail

The Ferguson Family were early settlers in Stanhope Township and the red brick Alven Ferguson farm on North Shore Road, complete wth original barns, is a treasure to behold. The cattle are long gone, but their gentle echo remains in the hearts of many in the community. The trail is a path through mixed forest, hills berry bushes and wetlands and makes this trail interesting.

Visitors can lengthen the trail by combining it with the Ridge Trail, which extends 3.3km north to the Circuit of 5 Viewpoints trail or south 2.2km to the James Cooper Lookout Trail.
