You will find Heritage Forest, the main attraction of Big Creek Conservation Area, just outside Amherstburg. Its loop trail, which runs along Big Creek, is ideal for hiking, snowshoeing or cross-country skiing. Follow it and discover the region's largest wetland! A true ecosystem, the Heritage Forest is also renowned as a migration and breeding area for bird species. During your stroll, you will also spot an abandoned barn and commemorative plaques honoring the deceased.
A small parking lot is provided at the forest's entrance. Holiday Beach Conservation Area is located nearby, so you can take advantage of all its facilities.
Access to the site is free! Dogs are welcome, but please note that to preserve the area in its natural state, the trail is minimally maintained, so watch out for ticks.
