Winter owls and a wide variety of other birds will beckon to you from the 100 feet maple; beech and oak canopy while deer and many other animals can be seen in the forest. A warm-up hut and future log cabin located in the forest offer a place to pause and enjoy the beauty.

Both the Grey Road 2 entrance and the entrance on the Osprey Collingwood Townline have ample parking available.
Groomed/ungroomed: There is no machine grooming at the Kolapore trails. Trails are skied in, so expect to break trail after a heavy snowfall.
