Northside Trails: Northside departs from parking lot E2. Consists of a very wide dirt and gravel pathway through the forest. The trail makes it easy to maintain physical distancing and is suitable for robust strollers.
Southside Trails: Southside departs from parking lot E3. Cedar Grove Trail is a 4km loop through cedar forest around a scenic pond. The trail varies between open grass area, narrow (1-2 person wide) paths, and boardwalk. The trail is very well maintained, however is not suitable for strollers on the east side. To hike this trail, start by following the orange arrows from the E3 Parking Lot. Once you hit the three way trail divide either a) take the blue arrow left (east) to hike clockwise a round or b) follow the orange arrow straight to take a counter clockwise hike around the pond. If you take option b: then you rejoin the blue arrow trail markers in 250m. Of course, the centerpiece of this looped hike is of Rogers Pond. It is a beautiful clear pond that can be viewed from the start of the hike (if hiking counter clockwise) from a large grassy area. Along the trail you’ll also see a wooden bridge and a boardwalk section on the far south side. The best view point is just 50 m from the three way trail split, looking out over the pond.
Rideau trail: The orange trail markers are for the trail leading to the Rideau Trail (that runs from Kingston to Ottawa). The Marlborough Forest section on the Rideau Trail is from Rogers Pond to Jock Trail (Rideau Trail Map 15).
