Dossyonshing Trail

Ojibwa translation means Diaper Point, possibly named for the large amount of moss on this area.

Passing between a thriving wetland area and quiet hardwood forest, this easy trail provides access to a number of fascinating habitats.

It passes beaver ponds and marshes, their shores crowded with purple pickerelweed and green grasses.

In the forest, listen for the tiny nuthatch - a bird that hangs upside down on tree branches as it searches for food.
