Nature Trail
This 2.5 km year round nature trail forms a loop through Cannington's MacLeod Park. Your walk or cycle will take you through meadows, woodland and along the banks of the Beaver River. Visit the Kiosk which provides a great place to sit and relax. Close-by are CHS's community gardens: Pollinator Garden, Rose Garden, Grass Garden, and Hillside Garden.
This Trail is an ongoing project of the Cannington Horticultural Society and is accessible from the Durham Region Trails network.
​
The nature trail officially opened on June 8, 2002 at MacLeod Park in Cannington. The following photos were taken during the opening ceremonies.
​
2019 marked the time for a few new improvements and updates on the Nature Trail. Five new signs were created to mark the Trail (see sample below) and a major cleanup of the trail was done. A new bridge was constructed replacing the older bridge who had served it's purpose for a very long time and was in disrepair.

We invite you to take a walk along the Nature Trail ~ and enjoy the outdoors!
