Geocache Description:

Ottawa Sign

Part of Nation Valley ATV Club's trail expansion into the City of Ottawa


Nation Valley ATV Club trails are new to the Ottawa area. This unopened road allowance was opened (with permission from the City of Ottawa) recently, and is a twisty and narrow trail leading along a deep creek.

When opening this road allowance, we were surprised to find an old rock fence, running most of the way along the far edge of the road allowance.  Likely a fenceline of days long ago. The trail winds back and forth avoiding larger trees, so it comes close to the rock fence and ventures away from it. This was a popular rest spot for the volunteers cutting this trail as it was a cool shady area to sit on the rocks and have a cool drink of water.

On your ATV you can access this cache coming from the North as well as the South. On foot, either direction also works; however, I would have to say that coming from the South is the more scenic and dryer direction to come from. No matter which direction you come from, this is not a flip-flops and shorts adventure, at minimum water resistance hiking boots are recommended.

The South Entrance to this road allowance begins as a gentleman's laneway, please do not block his laneway
