Cross country skiing
The park has numerous trails. During the winter, many of them can
be used for cross country skiing. All unplowed park roads are suitable.
Old Shore Road Trail 6
km (linear) This trail follows the Lake Huron shoreline.
In pioneer days it was part of the route that provided land transportation
between Goderich and Southampton. This trail offers excellent views
of the shore. Ungroomed.
Nipissing Bluff Ski Trail 1.6km
+ 3km
This ungroomed trail makes for a popular outing. The trail features
2 loops. The shorter loop is primarily on the top of the glacial
Lake Nipissing bluff and does not provide much variation in grade.
The longer loop travels through upland hardwood forest and wetland
areas.
Camping in Winter
Ten yurts provide roofed accommodation; or bring your tent or trailer
for a more rustic experience. A heated Comfort Station with showers
and flush toilets is open. Reservations are required for the yurts
and recommended for campsites. It is suggested you contact the park
before leaving home for weather and snow conditions. Reservations
for the yurts must be made by calling 1-888-ONT-PARK (668-7275).
