Anders Loop
A flat 4.5 km loop between the Visitor Centre and DeLaurier landscape, with seasonal cycling restrictions for bird migration.
Route overview
Anders Loop in Ontario.
Anders Loop forms a longer shared-use circuit through the central park landscape. It can be started from the Visitor Centre or DeLaurier area and is useful as a low-gradient endurance walk. During the spring birding season, cycling is suspended so the corridor functions as a pedestrian route.
