A birding trail borders 87 acres of unique Shorebird Habitat where water levels are actively managed to create mudflats, providing outstanding viewing opportunities. The nature centre has educational displays about flora and fauna typical to the region and the area is a great place for hiking, biking, picnicking, canoeing & kayaking, bird watching, fishing, swimming, and in the winter months, skiing. Hillman is located just minutes from Point Pelee National Park, and can easily be combined with a visit to nearby Kopegaron Woods Conservation Area.

We saw many different birds - and it wasn't even the birding season. The 5 km walk is peaceful and full of changing scenery. Wear bug spray though. When the breeze dies, they'll find you.

We were out on Thanksgiving 10/10/2022, the grounds are beautifully maintained. Part of the trail is blocked off due to hunting season, but we were still able to walk a very good distance. We did not have to purchase tickets whatsoever.

What a great area! Well marked trails. Lots of birds sighted- geese, sandpipers, long legs, black bellied plover, kill deer, blackburnian warbler, blue teal ducks and more!
