Hike, swim and padlleboard at Rockwood
Sat, Sep 5 · 8:30 AM EDT
Rockwood back entrance (Rockwood Conservation), Henry Street, Rockwood, ON, CA
With towering limestone cliffs, caves and glacial potholes, it’s no wonder that Rockwood Conservation Area is a popular destination for a healthy hike! From camping and picnicking to canoeing and swimming, this park is filled with tons of activities to enjoy.
Within the Conservation Area, there are two trails: Pothole Trail and Cedar Ridge Trail. Offering impressive views of the park, they take you around the reservoir, along the tops of cliffs, across boardwalks through wetlands and beside big glacial potholes. The trails are moderate difficulty and can be accessed from the beach or the mills ruins.
One of our favorite features about Rockwood is the variety of activities you can try. Step into nature and hike the Cedar Ridge Trail to see the Harris Woolen Mills ruins, glacial bluffs, potholes and caves. If you’re looking to try something different, you can rent a canoe or paddleboat and explore the Eramosa River, and geological wonders. Or, you can always hit the beach on a hot summer day to swim or relax in the sun. Since there are so many things to check out, you can easily spend a whole day here.
