I used to love coming here before the no-dogs-off-leash policy was implemented. My dog would play with others and have a good time. I went back today for the first time in a couple of years. The scenic rails are gone, the power-line and rail-trail construction has made a mess of the main central trail, it was buggy as heck, and we met nobody else. Meh. Bring bug spray, leave the dog at home and avoid the central trail and it's still got some great scenic views. I may be back in two more years.

Some very nice views across the field, a chance (for the dogs( to swim in the river, and some wooded hills on the west side of the loop. Seems like a seasonal place: in spring many parts will be flooded and in summer those parts will be swampy and buggy. But fall and winter it's perfect!

Not my favorite Sudbury hike, but not bad. Around the pond the trails are often flooded. And in the warmer seasons I find more ticks here than anywhere else. I only go in the winter.

Great place to walk your dog, meet dogs and dog owners - as long as you don't mind muddy (happy) dogs!
