about 50-minute drive There isn’t a specific location, please search it yourself. It’s really nice
Nature preserve 10 km away from cottage. Great night time fun, meteor shower. bring something to sit on since most the park is granite rock.
Good hiking in winter (snow shoes or crampons recommended if there has been a lot of snow)
Torrance Barrens Conservation Area was designated as the world’s first permanent Dark Sky Reserve. The 4,700-acres of Crown land is bedrock and wetlands, with trees and bushes that are stunted in height. For star-gazers this means a spectacular 360 degree view of the night sky, unhampered by light pollution. The Barren’s also doubles as an exceptional hiking and mountain biking destination, with 3 well marked trails for public use. In total, the trail system is over 15km long.
