Rotary Friendship Park

Rotary Friendship Park is a peaceful 64-acre natural space featuring nearly 5 kilometres of tree-lined gravel and clay trails. Designed for walking, running, and cycling, the trail network winds through farmers’ fields, wetlands, and beautiful old-growth forest areas.

It’s an ideal place to reconnect with nature. Listen to birdsong overhead and the crunch of leaves beneath your feet as you explore the woods. In addition, portions of the park include compacted gravel pathways, making parts of the trail system accessible for strollers and wheelchairs.

Since December 2021, the park has operated under a Woodlot Management Plan to help preserve and enhance the natural landscape for future generations.
