Gaetz Lake Sanctuary Loop

Five kilometres of trails, a bird blind, and viewing decks introduce you to a variety of habitats. To protect the wildlife, no skiing, jogging, pets, or cycling are permitted in the Sanctuary.

Since 1924, the Gaetz Lakes have been protected as a federal migratory bird sanctuary. Now part of Waskasoo Park, the Sanctuary’s 118 hectares (almost 300 acres) are set aside as a home for plants, mammals, birds, and other wildlife.
