The Oschman Forest trail is a well maintained dirt path through a forest of maple trees and trillium flowers. The pathway is 1-2 person wide and well marked. It takes you for a 1.2km loop of the mini forest. This is an excellent spot for family hikes since it is relatively short, no elevation, and is interpretive.
Interpretive Trail: One thing that South Nation Conservation is definitely good at, is maintaining and providing excellent signage to it’s hiking trails. This trail has signage along the pathway provide insights and education on the flora and maple production.
Maple Production and Education: There is a heritage sugar shack onsite that was used until the early 2000s by the Oschmann family. In the spring, you can actually see the sap flowing through the collection lines.
Trilliums: Well now, in the spring, the vibrant greens from the new buds on maple trees and the trilliums lining the forest floor are fierce. I dare say, even a little magical. Mostly white trilliums with a few rose coloured ones here and there.
