Heritage Trail | Pinery Provincial Park - Ontario


Several walking trails are available for exploring the Pinery Provincial Park (Ontario). The Heritage Trail is a relaxed stroll that will lead you to a viewing platform that overlooks the Old Ausable Channel after meandering through an exceptional example of upland Oak Savanna habitat. 
🍔🍎The platform over the Old Ausable Channel is a perfect place for a short rest or a picnic. 
The term "oak savanna" refers to a plant community with scattered "open-grown oaks" surrounded by grasses. In the early 60’s, many pine trees were planted in the park. The park seems to have been named after the trees that were planted but the main native ecosystem was an oak savanna.

During winter months, the trail is the perfect location for a quiet snowshoe stroll. Go and explore the park yourself!
