Looking to host your next gathering at ?

There are still dates available to rent the Sleepy Hollow picnic area!

Far from being a spooky home to the Headless Horseman, Sleepy Hollow is in fact one of the most tranquil areas in the entire park. A perfect place to reminisce with relatives at a family reunion or de-stress with your friends while grilling some good eats.

You can make reservations by contacting the park at 519-322-2365 ext. 0 or [email protected]

that in the 1970s there was only one active Bald Eagle nest in Essex County?

Now, we have at least 3 active nests in the park alone.

Day three’s hidden gem for birding at is Northwest Beach!

With ample parking and washrooms available, Northwest Beach is a great location to start your exploration of the north end of the park. Hike north along the Centennial Trail towards Sanctuary lookout.

Once you reach Sanctuary, continue north through the dry forest area on the Seasonal Birding Footpath where it meets up with the Centennial Trail. You can loop back south to meet up with another Seasonal Birding Footpath that will lead you across the road to Blue Heron trail, where you can bird along the edge of the marsh.

From there, it is just a quick hop back across the road to Northwest Beach where you started. Head to the trail head to the right of the Marsh Store, follow it back across the road and take the trail north across the old sand dunes via a boardwalk bridge. You’ll emerge at the south end of Northwest Beach.

Lots of great warblers, including Kentucky Warbler have been heard singing from this area!
