German Shepherd Dogs play in the rushing stream at the Breathing Forest
These German Shepherd Dogs are enjoying the rushing stream at the Breathing Forest located near Norwood, ON. Although this fairly small creek appears quite unassuming in this present day, it was originally named the Ouse River. It is normally a relatively calm, and serene river meandering gently through the village. Our dependence on the Ouse as a source of power and sustainability has all but disappeared, but perhaps its good to remind ourselves of the once-mighty river that at one time drove the industry and infrastructure that was the backbone of Norwood.
This was the perfect location for the dogs to cool off and splash after a long walk.
There are several, beautiful, somewhat short, trails that are all wide enough for two to walk side by side, and are clearly marked. There is a lovely lookout over the mill pond, complete with picnic table and another view of the pond at water level. There are a couple of rest benches along the trails as well. With the exception of a small tract of plantation forest, the wooded areas are mixed and canopied, and there is lots of open air, combined with sunny meadows.
There is ample parking at the northern trailhead entrance, however there are no facilities, and leashed dog walking is permitted. It appears the trails also host snowmobiles in winter and ATV's in summer. The road to the trailhead continues on to the town transfer facility, but I can’t imagine Norwood being a major hub of waste management and handling.
These trails are right on the North end of town with Highway #7 passing close by, and there are bound to be some typical town noises. Yet, I can’t say as I really noticed anything annoying. It's a great place to come for a quiet walk, enjoy nature and allow your dogs to explore it with you.
