Description
This relatively flat hike boasts beautiful sugar maples, large white pines and an incredible array of wildflowers in the spring. Keep your eyes open for mink, beavers and coyotes.
Thousand Islands National Park, one of Canada's smallest national parks, is located in the beautiful 1000 Islands region. The park consists of several mainland properties and more than 20 islands between Kingston and Brockville and is the traditional territory of two distinct aboriginal cultures, the Haudenosaunee (Ho dee no shoe ni) or Six Nations-Iroquois Confederacy and the Misi-zaagiing or the Mississauga Anishinaabe, close relatives of the Ojibwa People. The Haudenosaunee, an agricultural people, know the 1000 Islands area as Tsitkawehnoton (Jeet gah weh know doon), meaning "The Many Islands." The Misi-zaagiing, traditionally a hunting and gathering society, call the area Gicchi siibi, meaning "The Great River."
