Deep in the farthest reaches of the conservation area, there's a large marsh and series of beaver ponds. A great wilderness area with fabulous rocky single track. The Beaver Dam Trail is a good 6km long with many technical single track spurs.

West Section
|
Beaver Dam Trail has 2 distinct personalities.
The east side of the loop is mostly double-track, with smooth gravel pack. Easy fast riding, with some moderate climbs.
The west side loop is all single track, varying from wide cruising sections, to tight and twisty sections.
The Bruce Trail follows the east loop to the very back of the park. From there, the hiking trail spurs off into wilderness going north to Acton.

Single Track
West Section
|
This is a typical section of single track along the Beaver Dam Trail. The path is hard-packed and dry. Rocks are scattered and tend to be cropped together in "ladder steps" that are climbable and secure. Terrain is fairly flat.

* Beaver Dam Spur *
Single Track
Tech Rock Section
|
Along the far west side of the Beaver Dam Trail, there are 2 spur trails that are long & technical.
Oddly enough, they're not recorded on the trail map, but are well worn. A well-kept local secret.
This trail must be a good 3-4km long and winds along the far west side of the marsh area. It comes out at the access road leading back to the top of Beaver Dam Trail.
The white flowers dotted along the trail, are the official provincial symbol of Ontario - the trillium.

* Beaver Dam Spur *
Extreme Single Track
|
This second spur trail is more technical and narrow. There are severe rock sections that look impossible to climb with a bike BUT.... the view and adventure are worth it. This trail winds along 2 beaver ponds and ends up back near Hilton Falls.
