Rattray Marsh Conservation Area

Rattray Marsh Conservation Area is located between Lakeshore Rd and the waterfront. As you walk here you can see the Sheridan River, woodlands marshes and Lake Ontario with views toward the skyline of Toronto

The gravel trails are wide and smooth, the wet areas have well maintained boardwalk paths.





You can easily access the pebble beach and walk along the edge of the lake.


There are extensive trails through beautiful scenery so it becomes a delightful stroll or power walk hike depending on your desire.  My first visit I spent over 2 hours just walking, looking and enjoying.

As you come to the small bridge look on the left for the sign to the Conservation area with parking for 3 cars.  

There is a stone arch to enter the trail and large sign with a trail map.

The foot of Bexhill Road is another entrance
