Snow Adventure.
The Eastern Ontario Trails Alliance corridor runs from the Bay of Quinte north to Algonquin Park, and Limerick Township sits on the spine of that network. Through winter the multi-use trail switches to snowmobile use and the McGeachie Conservation Area's 500-acre forest opens up to snowshoers along its marked trail loops.
The brief.
EOTA snowmobile, ATV, ski, and bicycle access all run on the same network of regional trails, with separate passes for each use. Cross-country ski passes are $3.50 daily, $15 weekly, and $35 annual; snowmobile use is covered under the OFSC system the EOTA cooperates with.
Limerick Lake is typically frozen from late November to late April, supporting snowmobiling on the lake and the connected trail system. McGeachie Conservation Area's trail loops are walkable and snowshoeable in winter; the property's mix of forest, swamp, and beaver ponds carries the loop variety.
Highway 62 stays open year-round and serves as the main access spine to trail launches in Ormsby, St. Ola, and Gilmour.
