Atlas Park
Map
Description
Atlas Park is built around Atlas Lake, a man-made lake that used to be a deep quarry mine. Once the site was abandoned it quickly filled with water forming this small deep lake.
The Hummingbird Trail is the short trail around the lake. There are several other trails that loop through the surrounding forest. There is also a small trail that goes through a Botanical Garden near the interpretive Centre.

Enter the park and travel a short distance. There you will find a small parking lot on your right before the interpretive centre.
