Reviews of Ojibway Prairie Provincial Nature Reserve (Tourist Attraction)

Aiden Gardner

Great to see all the wild life

Mohammed Rubaa

Good Place to walk in with family or friends

Robin Hernandez

Beatifull nartural area for trip with her familiy.

David Bonnici

The Park has a magical way of making you feel 100 miles away from the city of Windsor/Essex area, and your one with nature. On any given day, like today, cold and a bit of snow, you will see all kind of different birds. And, you can even have them eat right out of your hand. For a nice brisk walk and getting fresh air this is the place to be.

Js K

Ojibway park is good for long walk along with nature very quite place like a forest best suitable for local public.

Jodi DiGiovanni

Jason Russell

Great trails

Vince Di Maggio

NICE PIECE OF ROAD TO DRIVE ON AT NIGHT. IN MEXICO!!!!!!!!!!!

Dom Watts

Awesome place to walk. Our dogs really enjoy it as well and the deer come right up to you too! Be aware of people with off leash dogs here if you bring dogs of your own.

Heather Livingstone

I went here regularly for some time and quite enjoyed myself. The bathrooms are well kept and there are many insects and amphibians behind glass to observe and read about. The trails are plesent and easy to navigate. They did offer some programs for homeschool students at one point in time, but I am no longer sure if they are doing so.

Dave Wood

A complete treasure on the outskirts of town

Yen Le

Amazing stop before getting to Talbot highway from Windsor. Great display or the huge variety of nature in the region, better than a school course definitely. We also enjoyed the walk in the woods a lot and lots. Highly recommended!

Katie Baby

We saw deer , racoons, chipmunks, birds and more.

Milan Ciganović

Nice place to go on a walk of any length or duration. There's always animals to see, and people are friendly and respectful when on the trails.

Mark Nenadov

Great in many ways. One way in which it is very unique (among many other ways) is that it provides a great INDOORS view of bird feeders. There aren't many public places where you can watch birds in the rain without getting wet.

Eric Broughton

Still needs evergreens for wildlife, like cedar as food for deer, etc...

Tara Joi

Love going here.

Paul Bilek

Beautiful nature

M-Ghaith Alsabea

Besides the bogs of dead end trails this place is amazing great wildlife ???? we appreciate the homeowner letting us walk out we got really stuck in boggy area. Great place great neighborhood. UPDATE:2020 Trails have been completely overhaul and now makes it much easier to get around no matter your ability.

Lina Abouzeeni

beautiful

Dave H

Long walks in a natural environment within city limits

Laurie McNeil

Small informative nature centre. Items for sale are a bit pricey. Good size natural wooded land. Many birds can easily be viewed and animals/snakes/fish in their natural habitat. Nice place to walk. Many people attend several times a week to take pictures. Quiet peaceful place

Riley Matthew

This place is great for family and a great adventure

Melanie Fish

Beautiful place to walk!

Lauren Weller

I love walking here! You can often see deer and other wildlife.

Sambath Kumaar

A large space with preserved wildlife. The natural reserve is abundant with wildlife including both animal and plant kingdom. The trails are rugged and muddy throughout while the difficulty level is easy/beginner. The reserve is easy to explore and deer sightings are the surprising gifts within the park. A natural, peaceful forest amidst the busy city. This place needs to be protected and preserved for generations to come.

Mark Smith

A real gem. One of Windsor's best features. A beautiful oak Savannah setting with a trail suitable for families. Good bird viewing and lots of deer for kids to watch. The centre is excellent with live snakes and turtles as well as other displays for education purposes. Staff are friendly and helpful.

Jay Wright

A peaceful "mini" forest in the heart of LaSalle. It's a beautiful place to enjoy a walk and listen to the sounds of nature.

Shawn Bellaire

Nice trails. Lots of wildlife. Hard to hear the wildlife though lots of traffic sounds.

M. Mack

Trails here venture off into a forested area and its quite beautiful! Other paths I haven't explored go a lot further through more residential area.

shahid khan

Okay place

mohamed elsawi

Beautiful nature place for walking , running ,Birds watching and beautiful animals.

Ryan Chodola

Great place to take a stroll and get some fresh air!

Blaine

Excellent nature area. Lots of trails to wander around. Plenty of opportunities to view wildlife.

Larry Evon

Love the facility. Had my daughter's first birthday party there. Great programs; helpful, friendly and highly knowledgeable staff such as Tom Preney that identifies many creatures to the delight of my 5 year old son. Just this week in Florida, we had to stop to take a picture of some fungus for "Mr. Tom" to see. I highly recommend this seemingly free hidden gem in Windsor. Take a hike on the trails, buy or bring a little bit of bird seed and have birds come feed from your had during the winter. Plus, if you have your own bird feeders, you can buy bird seed here.

Nick Seman (nicksemanphoto)

Definitely Windsor's hidden gem so robust with life great place for a walk!

Tom Fleming

Counted ten deer and two Great Horned Owls. A gem.

Wes Tultz

I go at least once a year, very nice trail for a place so close to the city.

Marina Levit

Nothing interesting

John Williams

not bad considering the location

Saffat Rahman Khan

Amazing trails!

Jenn Carpenter

It's educational for school groups, there's nature trails, picnic area, inside has snakes and listings of birds. You can observe the birds from the window inside or from outside. People can go for a walk to see the pond and look for frogs, or snakes along the trail, can listen for the birds and might even spot a deer.

Rick Bartel

Nice scenery...lots of wildlife. Wish they had longer trails, but this is an oasis...

Rrrr Rewind

Beautiful day walking in the fresh snow with my dog.

Lucas Grodzinski

Great place for a peaceful nature walk.

Benjamin Agapito

Tons of deer paths to follow for a nice hike, just mind for ticks!

Thiago Gamito

It's a simple park, but well kept and full of wildlife. The birds are used with people and if you're lucky they might eat seeds and nuts from your hand. A great place to walk on the trails and sight some animals like, white tail deers, foxes, racoons, groundhogs, squirrels, birds, bats, owls, and more. It's a simple place, but I love it!

Steven Chittle

Beautiful place. Great little indoor exhibit and kids play area with couches. Good place to bring kids and meet a friend at. Bring your own coffee though.

Luiz Renucci

Nothing special

Brian Perich

Great for an hour long walk or jog into woods with opportunities for seeing deer, and other small forest animals. Close to Windsor via EC ROW, Hwy 18. Continue to Fort Malden National Historic site if entertaining your kids, further south Hwy 18 into Amherstburg for an afternoon of history and learning.

Haley F

My son loves going on walks here :)

Scott Spiegelberg

I don't like walking on flattened down long grass (it's not like lawn grass but I don't know what to call it). I'd rather walk on dirt like a normal trail. Nothing much to see. No amazing views. Skip it.

Tahira Mursleen

I love this park. It's silent and peaceful place to come and mediate. The centre has alot of informative information and also you can get some coffee and watch some birds if you want.

Spence

Love this place

Jacob P

Went here late at 3am to watch the Perseid shower but I couldn't see anything...will be coming back during the day time to check it out...seems like a great place...saw a deer for the first time that day...was creepy watching it stare at me in the darkness especially when I noticed it...

One of the only places you can see and hear truly wild animals safely around Windsor.

My family and I love coming to Ojibway for a hike. It's a fantastic preserve with various trails of differing lengths. The paths are well maintained and kept clear. There's even a paved shorter trail that is perfect for my mom who has to use a walker. The nature center is great and the kids love it. Staff have always been very friendly and knowledgeable.

Unique flora and fauna.

Such a beautiful place for a walk or a picnic.

Dan Valade

This is such a great place for hikes with the family. It is amazing how quickly you can forget that Windsor and industrial land is so close. The old growth forest, the abundant wildlife, and the various trail options make Ojibway a resource worth fighting to keep.

Essex County's awesome trails

Love this place so much history !!!????????????????????????

Andrew Marissen

This is a great natural park area in the Windsor Essex region. Loaded with dear and plenty of other tasty wildlife. Like many parks though hunting and eating the wildlife is prohibited so you are going to have to go the poaching route if you really can't find tasty wildlife anywhere else. The staff at the nature center put on some incredible classes for kids and many of the local schools schedule visits here as well. One of the local gems and a must see.

Petra Ungnade

Great place to get kids some expose to nature. Staff is very helpful and friendly.

Would not recommend for party rentals. We dropped the balloons off in the morning and unknowing they charged from that moment on. Although no one else was renting the room. They also charged by the minute that we went over our party time while cleaning up. Its a nice location but the staff sucks.

Ohhhhhhhhhh yeaaaa. Really good. I would recommend this place, parking is good, lots of room for your car. Didn't get much further than that, but my goodness was it great. November is the month to go too. Almost nobody around, especially depending on the time you go, so nice and private. Had fun 10/10

Beautiful place to go for a walk.. I love walking there in the winter and fall because you will almost always see deer.

If you want to enjoy nature, close to the city, Ojibway Park is where you want to go. It's a natural pin oak forest, savannah, and tall grass prairie, with lots of wild life. Have a family picnic there, they have picnic tables, charcoal bbq's, the Nature Center for adults and children to enjoy.

Govinda Lal

I didn't expect to see so much wildlife in its natural habitat. Walking through the trails I saw deer, birds, snakes, turtles, squirrels, and fish. It felt just as much as an adult field trip as it did a field trip for kids. Great place to feel like a kid again and enjoy the outdoors.
