Swan Lake Nature Reserve & Trails

Visitors to the nature reserve can expect to find a 1.8km trail along the shoreline of Swan Lake along with a 3-storey wildlife observation tower, perfect for setting up your scope and searching for waterfowl on the lake. Swan Lake is a breeding, nesting and migration haven for a number of species of ducks, waterfowl and marsh birds. Migrants, such as the American Pelican and Trumpeter swan, pass through in the spring and fall and the surrounding grasslands are home to a number of small mammals and reptiles, drawing in Birds of Prey year-round. You can also expect to find Great Blue Herons from the nearby rookery making their way to feed in this fertile habitat.
