Ganaraska Trail

Join us for a gorgeous day hike at Queen Elizabeth II Wildlands Provincial Park. This is the Sheldon Lake via Ganaraska (Devil's Lake) hike which is a moderate to difficult 10 km out and back hike through a series of creeks of the Wildlands, leading to the lake.
It offers a series of nice views, and some good ups and downs. In total you will gain approximately 150-meter elevation.
It is recommended to carpool since there are very limited parking spots.
We may park at the side of Devil's Lake Road, if needed.
