Favorite thing: Portage P295 is a 3 or 4 minute walk , with a difference in elevation of maybe 2 meters , and has a clean and even walking path.

This is a very nice portgage .

Favorite thing: Hiking can be an enjoyable way to explore the park.
The trails are usually of easy to moderate difficulty and are well marked and maintained.
