My son and I hiked the area as a starter hike which is pretty much what this is. Trails are well kept (very soggy this year and anytime there is ample rain) but there are limited views really. It runs astride busy Wallbridge Loyalist road and train tracks. There is a nice area by a small river with a view from atop elevated ground.
Good for a shorter weekend stroll versus a real hike.

Its great walk and very convenient. Wear a wet type of foot wear as lots of areas you are going through you can't get around. Slippery. Trails are nice and wide for passing. Not a whole lot to see. No 'wow' spots.
There are no facilities right now and no benchs ir olaces tonsit and rest if you need. I would like to see a couple of bench areas as I'm not 30 anymore. One area had several fallen trees across trail that need to be cleaned and removed but we were abke to get around. Dogs are fine as long as on a teather. Smokers had thrown thier butts down. Take them with you. Be considerate. Will go again as it is a easy trail and very close to home

This is likely a very nice area during dryer times. It was immersed in water during my visit. After paying $5 for parking we were wet to our knees within a few minutes. This did not spoil the hike but did dampen other activities on this day as we had to return home to change.

Easy access, direct at the Bay of Quinte. Clean parking area and close to Belleville. Enough benches for sitting.

This is one of our regular spots to walk our dog. I see many other people out walking their dogs and taking their kids out but the trails are big enough that you are not crowded with many people. We also enjoy this spot for snowshoeing (When there is enough snow)
