Reilly Bird Nature Reserve

01

Reilly Bird Nature Reserve is a beautiful conservation area with views of plants, creeks and water streams. The reserve overlooks the Ottawa river and provides a safe space for half of the Meilleur’s Bay shorelines animals, such as turtles, spawning fish, rattlesnakes and many more. The reserve is a pretty lengthy trial, with 69 acres to explore.

It is named after Reilly Bird in honour of giving his lot to Ontario Nature. Initially, Bird owned a lot of the reserve (lot 36, to be exact). Bird emigrated to Canada in 1967 from London. He fell in love with the reserve’s wilderness, plants, and animals and composed vast knowledge of the region’s history and land. Before he passed in 1992, Bird wanted to give back to Canada, so he expedited the transfer to Ontario Nature. Ontario Nature decided to create trails so people can visit the place Bird once loved for its beautiful view of nature.

A must to visit in Laurentian Hills!
