This was a second attempt to complete a hike that we had to abandon almost exactly a year ago due to water and mud. This time the weather had been dry for several days and we were able to do the walk with dry feet. We covered about 6.5 kms using the main trail, side trails and an uninspiring walk up to a conservation area trail head. On our route we spotted a snake that appeared to be sunning itself on the side of the trail until we arrived.
We heard and then saw a number of frogs in the marshy spots.
The route was not especially challenging but it offered a wide variety of terrain, fungi, a floating boardwalk and a lovely viewing platform with a bench which we used for lunch. We did not see birds but could imagine birdwatching here at a different time of year. Very few hikers around on this beautiful 20 degree day.
