Beaver River Wetland Trail
A public former-railway trail through Brock’s Beaver River landscape, with walking, cycling and birdwatching opportunities.
About Beaver River Wetland Trail
The Beaver River Wetland Trail follows a former railway corridor between Blackwater and Cannington. Its long, flat sections pass wetland habitat used by herons, red-winged blackbirds, turtles, muskrats and beavers.
The Blackwater–Cannington section is managed by LSRCA. Recent improvements added rest areas and bicycle repair stations. Keep to the public trail: neighbouring preserve land has different access rules, and the 11th Concession bridge remains closed to motorised vehicles.

Before you go
Use the public trail rather than adjacent nature-preserve lands. Check LSRCA’s current closure notices; its present bridge notice restricts motorised vehicles at the 11th Concession crossing while permitting pedestrians and cyclists.
