Low Island Trail

This short, accessible trail starts on the shore west of Little Current. The Niagara Escarpment has been designated a World Biosphere Reserve by the United Nations.

It is a continuous series of natural areas, consisting of forests, meadows, marshes, rocky cliffs and shorelines, centered on a spectacular 400 million year old geological formation

It is home to the most ancient and least disturbed forest ecosystem east of the Rocky Mountains, with thousand year old cedar trees and a wide diversity of plants and animals.

Threatened or endangered species include Lady's Slipper Orchid, Massasauga Rattlesnake, Hart's Tongue Fern among others.
