DESCRIPTION

The McElmons Pond Trail is approximately a mile long loop beside a pond and 
through a wildlife sanctuary.  It traverses a forest of red pine plantations and 
a black spruce swamp.  Maple, birch, balsam fir and red spruce are also found 
here.  The interpretive trail is mainly flat with some poorly drained areas.  
The park is a popular stop-over area for Canada Geese. 

The park has washrooms, picnic areas and parking. 

Please practice a sound wilderness ethic while visiting here.
