Birch Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The trail is wide and floored with fine crushed gravel. You can't see much of the water from here, but the trail is well-groomed and it's a nice shady way to loop around the lake in the summer.

Tip by

3.00 km

Green Timbers Lake is a small freshwater lake at the centre of the park, surrounded by forest, walking paths, and fishing platforms that make it one of the area’s main gathering spots. Stocked with rainbow trout and bordered by wetlands, the lake attracts ducks, turtles, and other wildlife, while calm water and tree reflections give it a lovely, peaceful atmosphere.

Willow Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Willow Trail follows the eastern edge of the lake and is a smooth gravel path with beautiful views of the water, open meadows, and peaceful woodlands. Along the way, you’ll spot plenty of waterbirds, and keep an eye out for Red-tailed Hawks and ravens soaring overhead as you explore. It’s one of the best trails in the park for enjoying the varied landscapes of the Urban Forest.
