South March Highlands Conservation Forest

Highlight • Forest

South March Highlands Conservation Forest is a large, ecologically diverse forested area known for its network of multi-use trails through wetlands, rock outcrops, and mature forest. The trails vary from easy, family-friendly paths to more rugged singletrack used by hikers, trail runners, and mountain bikers, with wildlife and birdwatching opportunities along the way. The forest’s natural setting feels surprisingly wild despite its proximity to suburbia, ideal for an outdoor escape year-round.

PWT Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The PWT Trail is a beautiful path, and a key loop in South March Highlands that connects east and west sections of the forest’s trail system, passing through varied natural features including small waterfalls and forested corridors. Often accomplished as part of a larger route (sometimes combined with Dogsled or other loops), it offers rolling terrain suitable for intermediate hikers and mountain bikers. This trail is a great example of the forest’s ecological diversity, from its wetland edges to rocky Canadian Shield terrain.
