The first time in visiting Wilder Forest was so enjoyable, we took the time to visit again (see our first visit to Wilder Forest here). Wilder Forest is just under an hour drive from Toronto, to the north-east.
Being the first sunny and warm day of March, we wanted to revisit the forest!
Pathway at Wilder Forest.
The terrain of Wilder Forest features rolling hills and valleys, in which the trail weaves around and over. If you are looking for a good leg workout, head here!
This time we were able to visit the Lookout Point, not far from a trailhead entrance off the road. Here, you can enjoy views of Durham Region and Toronto.
We parked at entrance F9 on Concession 6. We were able to visit the lookout point marked by the star on the trail map.

I have not been to Wilder Forest, but I’ll have to add this to my list of places to check out. Looks like a nice trail that is reasonably close to Toronto.
