Maidstone Conservation Area

This 20 hectare site is perfect for an afternoon trip to the country. The area includes a winding 1.5 kilometre trail through an oak-hickory woodland. Part of the trail passes along the upper meandering reaches of the Puce River. Pack a picnic and enjoy lunch in a restful setting. Great for family get-togethers. With well-managed trails and boardwalks, Maidstone Conservation Area is very accessible and makes a pleasant excursion. Walk the trail through this classic Carolinian Forest and see if you can spot the Indian Signal Tree!
