Oyster River Trails

The Regional District purchased this property in 2005 to serve as a trailhead for the "pub to pub" trail between Salmon Point and Oyster River Nature Park. The previous owners had allowed the public to cross the property to access the Crown land to the south. Trail users should be aware that during fall, winter and early spring months,flooding can affect the trail, making it impassable.

Natural Features

The park includes a wetland and upland second growth forest, providing habitat for fish, numerous wildlife species and rare plants. The park is adjacent to Provincial Crown Land, which provides public access to the beach. Several introduced species occur in the park landscape including Gorse, Scotch Broom, Himalyan Blackberries, Lambs-quarters and Reed Canary Grass.
