Orchard Trail is a 3.2 mile moderately trafficked loop trail located near Pickering, Ontario, Canada that features beautiful wild flowers and is good for all skill levels. The trail is primarily used for hiking, walking, nature trips, and bird watching and is best used from June until September. Dogs are also able to use this trail.
Nice trails. The trees have almost lost all the leaves but the colours are still beautiful. Peaceful atmosphere. Not too many people on the trail. Easy hike.
pros: - lots of (free) parking - many sub trails to explore - bathrooms - beautiful fall colours - GORGEOUS drive from markham (winding roads, beautiful trees, tons of biodiversity!) - amazing small businesses to stop along the drive! (butter tarts, farms, pie stands!) cons: - kinda crowded - lots of pavement - not 100% wheelchair accessible - you gotta walk up and down a pretty big pavement hill to get to any of the trails - no epic views or lookout spots
