Yesterday, I drove by the closed gate of this Provincial Park and vowed to stop the next time I passed by.
On my way back home, I decided to stop. The address is: 2680 Donnelly Drive, in Kemptville, ON.
Once I snuck through the gate on foot, I headed for the water.
It was a +16C day, but there was still ice to avoid on the pavement and trails.
The grass around the picnic area was very soggy. But the view was worth it!
I found the Shoreline Trail which curves its way along the bank of the river. It leaves the park boundary and continues on to a boat ramp, playground and beyond.
I’m sure this park is very busy in the Summer months. It was nice to see it in the off season.
