More Info Here: https://ganaraska-hiking-trail.org/
Wedgewood Drive backs onto the trail system which is part of the world-renowned trans-Canada Ganaraska Trail. This hidden gem winds through the fragile ancient parabolic sand dunes of Wasaga Beach Provincial Park, providing great views of the Nottawasaga River deep below in the valley. From there, the trail goes through McIntyre Creek and passes along quiet country roads to Smithdale, east of Glen Huron, where it connects with the Mad River section. This section is about 51 kilometres long and suitable for novices. Hiking, running, mountain biking, snowshoeing, cross country skiing, and even tobogganing are enjoyable activities here.
If you like to golf, watch for news regarding the neighbourhood’s golf course formerly known as Wasaga Sands, then Twin Creeks.
