Reviews of Windy Ridge Conservation Area (Tourist Attraction)

Angelo Garcia

Seeking nature one more place to visit

Matt Gray

Nice trails, very nice view. The only negative thing I could say is, people need to pick up after their dogs, you have to really watch where you step on the lower part of the trail.

Jilaine Shay

Lovely hike. Beautiful view from the lookout.

Beautiful spot

Doug Macintosh

Trails are fairly short and really fun. Gorgeous look out. Our last visit followed a thaw and refreeze, so some trails were slippery on hills. Overall, an amazing place.

Nice hide up the hill, with a beautiful view. Only wish the trails were longer.

I finally decided to check this trail out with my dogs, so glad I did!! It’s a nice short loop, we did it twice. The first few hundred meters are uphill, and pretty early on in the hike you’ll reach a stunning lookout point, have a seat at the picnic table and take it in. The way down is just as beautiful, then at the bottom you’ll walk along the lake and then along a field. The whole walk is wonderful!! Most of the trail on the upper parts is single track, then the lower parts are double track.

Great view!

Jeff Brown

Nice short hike with a great lookout. Variable elevation along trail.

Tom Worsley

Nice view of the Pigeon River and Bethany Ski Hills

Nathan Gilbert

Great walk even in the snow. Nice information at the top

Lauren Newton

Great place to walk the dogs!

Amanda Aube

Good little hike trail. If you want more of a challenge, from the parking lot go right. You will climb a steep hill. Less of a challenge go left from the parking lot.

Anna Sweet

Only got about 5 mins in when we had to turn back for being swarmed by horseflies. It's mid June, perhaps a bad time for them, but it was so bad we had to run back to the car! Trail itself looked lovely and wish we could have walked the whole thing.

Robert Legault

Nice place 1.3km trail, easily walked in less than 30 minutes

Mike Richards

Be careful on the slope, it gets icy.

Paul Schortemeyer

Simple but a nice spot to relax!

DJ Chandler F

Short hike with a beautiful look out! Seems to be open enough that it isn't too buggy so long as there is a breeze.

Stephen Phillips

Really great spot for a short hike with little kids; fantastic lookout.

Justin

Great little spot

Rosanna Zerafa

Absolutely beautiful place touched by the hand of God!

Helena Verdier

This is a beautiful little hike! Definitely a bit challenging if you haven't been on a hike in a while. I recommend starting by going left to the lookout, it's a lot easier that way!

Emily-Kate Hunter

As advertised. Good birds.

Zsófia Halmai

A great place for a short winter hike and tobogganing. The trail is easy and short, perfect with small kids.

Nikki Johnstone

Beautiful place to go walk and watch the sunset, very quiet and peaceful

myz jed

Nice lookout but thats about it

Ed K.

This is a perfect small little walk a few geocaches and a nice view

Astrid

A short trail but with challenging steep spots. Worth the walk up to the lookout.

Jean L

Short drive from Lindsay. Quick loop up and down a hill with a great view as payoff and passing waterway and meadow. Not crowded. No toilet.

Alex Childs

Went during winter, lots of sledding, girlfriend lost Swiss Army knife, let me know if you find it please, she misses it.

L H

Nice area but is a small basic loop track.. the lookout has a picnic table for breaks and is probably the best part

mary hill

Nice trails

Samantha Chin

For a relatively shorter hike, had a lot of fun and well maintained.

S Clare

My son and I wanted a short hike so we headed out to Windy Ridge on Dec 14th at about 4:00pm. The trail was a little slick so we stayed to the sides and really enjoyed the walk. Just as we got to the top of the lookout, we were engulfed in a show squall! Though visibility was low, it was easy to follow the clear, cut trail back around to the parking lot. We had a great time.

Aggie Martinez

Ok for a walk but not much to see

David Rossall

Short trail with a lookout over looking Pigeon river

Ian Aubrey

Love going here with the kids, great walk, even in the winter...lots of birds to see, sometimes you can see the porcupine, no fees, usually pretty quiet, good parking, toilet facilities available, can be a bit of a climb if you go all the way around, wear good shoes, and keep eyes peeled for treasure :)
