| Howard Watson Nature Trail | |
| The
Howard Watson Nature Trail was established in 1988 on an abandoned
Canadian National Railway right-of-way in Sarnia. Interesting
prairie plants present here include wild lupine, rough blazing-star,
fringed puccoon, porcupine grass, butterfly weed and stiff goldenrod.
The section of trail from Modeland Road to Blackwell Side Road is
flanked by tallgrass prairie on both sides. Beyond the prairie is
fringe of woodland containing black oak, sassafras and fragrant
sumac. The trail, 2.2km in length, is owned by the city and
managed by Lambton Wildlife Incorporated.
Directions: From Hwy 402 take Exit 6 and go north onto Modeland Road (Regional Road 27). Go 2.8 km to the parking lot which is on the right (east) side of the road. |
