McGuire Lake Park

A shorter paved trail with total accessibility for all users. The trail circles the small lake adjacent to Shuswap General hospital and it is a very pleasant half hour stroll. Many species of ducks frequent the lake as well Red-winged blackbirds, Song Sparrows, and a few foraging warblers. An occasional Double-crested Cormorant will pop over from the main lake, as well as Great Blue Heron. Lots of Western Painted Turtles haul out and bask on the logs, and if one is particularly fortunate, an American Bittern may emerge from a secret hiding place in the reeds!
