We hope that you will take the opportunity to enjoy the woodland trails and wetlands of Aaron Provincial Park.  A leisurely hike will introduce you to the plants, animals and landscapes of Northwestern Ontario.  Trail brochures are available at the park office.

Aspen Trail - 1.9 km loop

The Aspen Trail will introduce you to stands of boreal forest consisting of aspen, birch, jackpine, balsam fir and spruce.  Walk through the remnants of the terrific wind storm of 1973, and over bare rock surfaces scarred by glaciers which melted 10 to 15 thousand years ago! Look around for signs of white-tailed deer, such as browsed branches, tracks and pellets.  All the while you will be entertained by Aaron Provincial Park's 26 species of warblers, as well as other boreal vocalists!

Eastern White Cedar Trail - 1.2 km loop

A stroll down this trail will help you to appreciate the history and ecology of Aaron Park.  You will walk through large, historic stands of trees, hike along the shores and wetlands of Thunder Lake, and climb up a slope to a clay plain.  See how many species of amphibians, mammals, birds, trees, flowers, lichens and mosses you can spot along the way!
