Jan. 21st walk details…..
Meet in the parking lot of Snyder’s Flats (the end of Snyder’s Flats Rd.) at 10:00 am.
In Bloomingdale, turn off of Sawmill Rd. (at the ball diamond) on to Snyder’s Flats Road & go to the end of the road to the parking lot.
Snyder’s Flats is a 100-hectare former gravel pit that has been restored as a natural area with ponds, new forests, grasslands and other features.
The ponds provide habitat for several fish species that live in the ponds as well as the nearby Grand River. The forest was planted in conjunction with the Kitchener-Conestoga Rotary Club.
There is a 4.5 km looped trail with interpretive signs that explain the features of Snyder’s Flats.
