SavePlace Title: Kimiwan Lake Bird WalkPlace Description:
Come explore one of the must-see birding destinations in the Peace Region, the Kimiwan Bird Walk. This area in McLennan is indisputably one of the premier waterfowl sighting areas in North America. The Interpretive Centre is open May through October and will lend you a pair of binoculars to get a close-up view of wildlife.
The first portion of the self-guided Bird Walk is a hard-packed gravel walking trail of approximately 300 m which circles around a wetland and leads you to the wooden portion of the walkway. Walk slowly and quietly to have the best chance to observe some really interesting bird behaviour. Be sure to check out each “Watchable Wildlife Fact” sign which highlights a specific bird that is common to the site.
The wooden portion of the walkway takes you approximately 400 m out towards the main lake and over shallow water. Each step you take can result in a different sighting or bird behaviour. Walk past a second small wetland and then proceed out into the lake. There are three decks along the wooden walkway stretch, each with a picnic table and a garbage can. At the last deck and furthest into the lake, there is a viewing scope for your pleasure. Experience the excitement of spotting a variety of waterfowl species coming in for a smooth landing on the water or a red winged blackbird perched on a cattail. Listen for the sweet song of a thrush or witness the hunting prowess of a bald eagle! Nothing compares to the wild and wide-open spaces of the north.
Allow yourself at least 30 minutes to complete the bird walk. Kimiwan Lake hosts 1000s of migratory birds per day during the migratory seasons and hundreds of other bird species can be seen throughout the summer season. Exploration is worthwhile all year long as other wild life is often spotted during the winter months as well.

SavePlace Title: Dixonville Community Forest TrailPlace Description:
A magical gem of Boreal forest with easy access awaits you only 600 metres off of Highway 35. From highway 35, turn west onto highway 689 into the hamlet of Dixonville. Dixonville is approximately 57km northwest of the Town of Peace River. Once in Dixonville, watch carefully for 1st St. West and turn South on it. You will then come to a large truck parking lot on your right hand side. You have now arrived at your enchanted destination.
The entry to the forest trail is marked by a large sign with flags and is adjacent to a foot bridge. Cross over the bridge (beware of the old troll that may still be lurking) and you are onto the trail. The majority of the trail is a gravel surface and while not suited for a wheelchair, it is mostly flat and level. The trail is approximately 1.5km’s and offers a great way to stretch your legs while taking in the sights, sounds and smells of a typical boreal forest.
Along the trail you will find informative signs highlighting various aspects of the flora and fauna. A variety of bird houses and even bat houses have been installed throughout the forest to encourage nesting. For the young or very young at heart, look for a tiny enchanted forest but be very quiet as you never know what or who you may see in there. A side trail will have you bounding on soft moss and encompassed by some large White Spruce trees.
In the wintertime, the trails are still very much so accessible. The main portion of the trail is packed and groomed for easier walking or cross country skiing. The side loop is intentionally not groomed as it lends itself well to snowshoeing and off trail exploration.
A 50 metre section of the trail lovingly referred to as “Chickadee Alley”, features several large bird feeders complete with bins of seeds. Feel free to fill the feeders while you watch and listen. It is not unusual to feed over 600 pounds of seeds here each winter not to mention suet and other treats! These feeders are primarily stocked in winter months only. From spring months until late fall months our small forest critters are able to forage just fine within the vast hearty taiga.
Toilet facilities are not provided and campfires are only permitted in the Shady Lane campground located south of the Community Forest.
No OHVs permitted
