Open year-round but subject to seasonal conditions, this unique 6,000 hectare wilderness is located north-west of Barrie and can be partially accessed via foot or canoe. The undisturbed nature and habitat diversity are of prime importance to birds for spring migration, nesting, staging for fall migration and feeding grounds. This wetland plays host to great numbers of waterfowl including, Buffleheads, Scaups, Gadwalls, Black and Ring Neck Ducks. Flocks of Canada Geese and pairs of Whistling Swans are common. On the outer edges where the forest meets farmland, you may be rewarded by observing Sand Hill Cranes stopping over on their migration to Western Canada. A diverse selection of plants and animals within a range of habitats, including Boreal and Carolinian forests make this wetland of extreme interest to many. The 1 km Meadow Mouse Trail begins at the info kiosk on George Johnston Road, located 8 km north of Hwy. 90, and offers views of the old Lake Algonquin shoreline that towers above and forms the south-eastern boundary of the wetland. The short, well-groomed route also traverses a large expanse of marsh habitat. Mayers Marsh is part of the Minesing Wetlands. The wetland area is responsible for the important job of filtering and cleaning our water. Bird watching is a good activity here. To reach this area specifically, follow the North Simcoe Rail Trail from Hwy 26 (parking available) or from Vespra Valley Road, which runs south from Hwy 26 to Snow Valley Road, ending at Snow Valley Ski Resort. Directions: For hiking and skiing, there are several access points, including George Johnston Rd, 8 km north or Hwy. 90. Access for the popular Nottawasaga River Route is located at the former NVCA office on Hwy. 90, just east of Angus. Another less travelled but scenic route for paddling is the Mad River, with access at Simcoe Road 10, just west of Angus.
