Such a fun little walk. It’s well maintained and and enjoyable experience. Not too long if you are looking for a short walk.

This is a short walk away from the main parking lot of the park. Some sections feel like the boardwalk was gonna collapse, so it needs some tender loving care. The viewpoint near the end was absolutely panoramic and we loved it.
We saw people with nets possibly trying to catch dragonflies. One of the dragonflies actually landed on my shoulder and that was a nice touch. There were a lot of birds too so it's a great place for bird watching as well!

Nice stroll through the marsh on the boardwalk. Great for families, not too much to see though. Better trails in the area though this is probably the most accessible in town.

The walk is easy, the floating boardwalk is interesting, there are a few rest areas with benches along the walk, some interpretive signs. Worth doing. About 45 minutes or so.

Stopping to watch 3 beavers breaking ice in the water was something you do not often see while out for a bike ride,
Trail very easy to travel

Neat short trail through a marsh. Lots of things for kids to see like leeches frogs and so on. Look for the cool little grass islands that the wind blows across the pond

This was a very interesting walk and we enjoyed the motion of the floating boardwalk. The tall cat tails were something else. We were lucky enough to spot the beaver dam, but never saw any beaver. The scenery was awesome. a great way to enjoy Mother Nature.

Be sure to stop in at the gift shop in the interpretive centre to rent a dip netting kit for $3 that includes a pail, dipnet, magnifier, and a book listing the most common creatures to catch, observe and release in the marsh. An easy, boardwalk covered walk is pleasant enough for just a stroll with a friend to watch the red-winged blackbirds and other marsh life....but with a kid or two along, it becomes hands-on biology fun. Leeches, minnows, boatmen, water striders and numerous other creatures will delight young adventurers. Not to be missed! Be sure to wear a hat and some sun screen if you're going mid-day or mid-summer, as there is very little shelter from the sun.

You can get kits at the Visitors Centre in Wasagaming — a dipping net, small pan, and info booklet — so you and the kids can dip for (and identify) insects, leeches, snails, etc., as you’re walking on the boardwalk trail through the marsh. You may also see several beaver dams, though the beavers themselves can be quite elusive. A great way to get in touch with nature and let the kids explore and learn.
